I can imagine that for the bar owners, the shops and some other business it is not so good to close the Bangla so early.
They have to supply their business and can not drive directly to there shops/Bars.
But for the tourist it is much better because it is like a “walking street”.
Perhaps in the future it will be more attractive, if there are chairs and tables etc. on the street and some people make music (not from a CD).
But you never get all under one hat.
Perhaps it is better, they close Bangla a little bit later – I think about 8 pm – The most people come anyway later to the bars and sois.
