Chandrima Udyan or Chandrima Uddan (Bengali: চন্দ্রিমা উদ্যান, romanized: Chandrimā Udyān, lit. 'Moonlight Park') is a park situated across the National Parliament Building, in Dhaka, Bangladesh.[1]
The 73-acre (0.30 km2)[2] park is notable for being the place where the former Bangladeshi President, Ziaur Rahman was buried. It is connected to the road with a bridge which runs over Crescent Lake, dug in the 1965–1966 fiscal year.[3][4]
