Pastimes are the
spices of life as they remove monotony and fatigue of life. Pastimes vary from
person to person and urban to rural life. The urban people are exposed to all
modern amenities. Besides, their life is too much mechanical. Hence, they try
to go out of the din and bustle of the urban life. They usually go to the park,
visit zoo and amusement parks with their children. Besides, watching T.V.,
hiking, bird watching, camping etc. have been very popular with the urban
people. But the rural people are deprived of modern amenities. Hence, they
enjoy gossipping in their leisure. It is noteworthy that the facilities of dish
antenna has reached many remote villages of Bangladesh. As a result, people are
now enjoying TV watching. Besides, Jatra, jarigan, sharigan, snake charming,
magic shows etc. are still popular in rural areas. Village people also enjoy
our native games, for example, Kabadi, football, Ha-du-du etc. Besides, very
often they raise storm on the cup of tea in the tea stall about political
condition of the country. Thus, it is found that pastimes of the urban people
are different from those of the rural people
