Dhamrai Upazila (Bengali: ধামরাই উপজেলা) is an administrative region of the Dhaka Division in central Bangladesh. Located about 40 km northwest of Dhaka, Dhamrai is known for its historic zamindari heritage, traditional metal craftsmanship, religious diversity, and rural Bengali landscapes. It is a culturally significant area on the outskirts of the capital and offers a quieter contrast to the bustle of Dhaka city.
Rickshaws and auto-rickshaws are commonly used within town areas. Walking is suitable for short distances, while local transport is used for nearby villages.
