Gulshan Thana

Gulshan (Bengali: গুলশান) is an affluent residential and commercial neighbourhood, as well as a thana (police jurisdiction) in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Originally a rural settlement called Bhola Gram, the area was developed in the early 1960s into an upscale suburban neighbourhood with planned housing and infrastructure. Gulshan underwent a major transformation beginning in the 1990s, evolving into a dense urban zone with high-rise buildings, shopping centres, banks, hotels, private clubs, and diplomatic missions. Today, it is home to a number of the city's restaurants, five-star hotels, shopping centres, schools, banks, offices, and clubs. It also hosts the majority of foreign embassies and high commissions in Bangladesh. Offices of many Bangladeshi and international companies are located in Gulshan.
