Planning to stay in Gulshan and have been advised not to venture into the old city for sightseeing given the blockade. My colleagues told me they haven't noticed blockade or protests at all in Gulshan during the day so far, so I'm wondering whether sightseeing or moving around is so dangerous. That being said, is it safe to venture into the city? Are there any interesting sights in the suburbs worth exploring?

Seems Sonargaon is also not good due to the highway blockade.
