Bailey Road is perhaps best-known as the heart of Dhaka's theatre world. The stage productions of Dhaka's major Drama companies are usually performed in Bailey Road. Over the years, its Theatres have played host to some of the country's best actors and actresses. The street is also popular among Dhaka's residents for its quality Bookshops , clothing Boutiques (e.g. its Jamdani sari stores), and Fast-food shops. Indeed, Bailey Road played an important role in popularizing Fast-food Culture among Dhakaites, with outlets such as Swiss and Euro-Hut leading the way in the late 1980s and early 1990s . The success of these shops was due in no small measure to the large number of students (and their guardians) who patronized them. Bailey Road is within reaching distance of a number of Schools and Colleges , among them Viqarunnisa Noon School (one of Dhaka's top girls' schools) and Willes Little Flower School . Bailey Road was featured in a song of the same name by Ayub Bachchu , lead singer of the popular Rock band LRB . |
