NIce but Confusing Collection
This collection of tribal accoutrements could be so much more. The museum is divided into many rooms, each representing a different tribe. Given the proximity to the Hill Tracts, this is an appropriate location for a museum of this type. Unfortunately, the displays need up-dating. There is very little to help you figure out the differences between the tribes. But as a catalog of all the different clothing, tools, ornaments, housing styles, etc, this museum is quite thorough.

Learn about the different Bangladeshie Tribes atthe Ethological Museum, well worth the visit
This place gives a great overview of the history of the hill tribes and through depiction you can easily spot the differences between the different tribes. An hour or so should do it, Unfortunately they do not allow cameras nor do they have brochures or pamphlets so you have to take my word for it well worth a visit.

Hidden Gem at the middle of the city
A calm and quiet place just at the middle of hustle and bustle of busy city center - Agrabad. The museum got good collection, but could done a lot better in terms of show casing.
