The place is a useless place under a flyover bridge named ‘Hanif Flyover’ within 500 meters of the site project. After parking the visitor's car there, they can start their journey to the museum by taking horse carriages. This horse-drawn carriage was the standard mode of transportation in old Dhaka in the 19th century.
