SC-S29|Geo-Quest Mystery – Week 1: The Origin Point

in Traveling Steem2 days ago

Hello friends. Today I am here to participate in this wonderful SC-S29|Geo-Quest Mystery – Week 1: The Origin Point engagement competition organized by @kouba01. This is a place where I want to participate in the topic "Origin Point". So thank you very much for organizing such a wonderful contest.

Among all the monuments of Bangladesh, one of the wonderful monuments is the Dhaka National Memorial. There is a helipad field next to this monument. Which is a lively and perfect mind freshening spectacular place. Today I will show some scenes about this helipad and review it. Since it is located in an open area, it does not have a specific gate. VIPs land at this helipad. If I were asked to give this place a special name, I would say it's a historical street, because the competition asked me to identify it as any place.

COMPLETELY ORIGINAL VIEW OF THE HELIPAD FROM THE FRONT

Since it is a helipad, all types of helicopters land here. This national monument of Bangladesh is one of the most respected pillars among government establishments. Sometimes, additional security is not maintained to enter the memorial and it is not possible for VIPs to follow the protocol.

Especially the Honorable Prime Minister of the Bangladesh government and various advisors bring helicopters here and land. Instead of coming directly through the gate, they land at this place and enter by shortcut. However, there is a secret hidden in this helipad field. It is wonderful to see the pillars of the memorial far away from the helipad field.

THE SEVEN PILLARS MONUMENT SEEN FROM THE HELIPAD FIELD

Standing here, I have discovered two things. I consider this to be a hidden source. This is a personal discovery I made in this place.

  • The Feeling Of Seeing A Helicopter In The Open Sky.
  • Experience Seeing 7 Memorial Pillars Firsthand.

Here I have avoided taking pictures of all the people because I do not like taking pictures of anyone without permission. Although this place looks like a field, to me it is a silent witness full of history, sacrifice and national spirit. As ordinary visitors, those who do not see helicopters are fortunate enough to occasionally see them under the open sky.

This helipad field located next to the National Memorial is mostly used for important state functions. But for ordinary visitors, it creates a kind of peaceful and free atmosphere. I was able to understand myself in this place by joining that atmosphere. Standing here, on one hand, the strong pillars of the memorial are visible, and on the other hand, I feel the deep value of freedom.

There are two helipad fields side by side. There is a clean road to the other field with grass on both sides. So I walked a little further. The grass is cut in a certain way so that it is evenly spaced. There is an H sign written in the middle of the heady belly. This is because it is only a target and helicopters land on it.

Since this is a helipad field, it is a matter of luck to see the seven pillars in the distance directly from here. I was one of the lucky visitors who could see and appreciate this view. I have chosen this place as my Origin Point because this is where my journey of thought begins. Who am I, where do I come from and what history has made me stand? If you want to know the history, you must come to this memorial.

The helipad field here is always kept clean. That is why when I went there, I saw a man washing the place where the helicopter lands in the helipad field with water. Many foreign tourists come to explore the history of the memorial. That is why this place is kept especially clean.

THE HUGE HELIPAD FIELD IS BEING WASHED AWAY BY WATER

The open sky of this field teaches me to think freely. I cannot think like this in any other place, but this place teaches me to think deeply. The feeling of thinking of myself as an explorer first became clear in me when I came to this place. Since it is located next to a memorial, my desire to know about history increases even more.

It is located in a place where the past and the present speak together. This place is very secure. Especially at night, there are high quality lights and CCTV cameras. Since it is a public place, dustbins have been placed here to store garbage. And there is a seating system along the edge.

I am a luxury traveler. But most of the time I like to present myself as a history hunter. That is why I always visit historical places. I have directly visited this place and was a witness. I still remember the moment I spent there. I visited this place to observe the history of Bangladesh.

Since it is a government establishment, there are many other establishments inside but entry is not allowed. It is an important public place and monument, so temporary forces are always guarding it. There are buses of our own and military forces for their movement. It is parked next to the helipad field.

As a traveler, I visited this place and chose it as the origin point. As always, I have made a video of this place and I have given the link below. However, this place fascinated me, especially the atmosphere and nature of this place created a moment related to it.

Although there is a national monument next to it, this place is specially kept open for tourists. I visited this place as a general public. There is only one road leading out of the helipad, which has small beautiful trees on its side. I expressed my feeling after going here in an emoji.

So this was my analysis of today's travel expedition. When I consider myself an explorer, I take good care of that place and try to highlight the history of that place. The details of each place are important to me. Because different places have different memories that we want to observe and present. It was a great topic contest in which I am happy to participate. I want to travel to more such historical places in the future.

Dear brother, after reading your post, I have increased my desire to visit the National Monument of our country. I have visited most of the famous places in the capital Dhaka. You have reviewed a very beautiful place. The pictures are very beautiful. Here VIPs of our country land by helicopter. You have presented the place very beautifully. Looking at your emoji, it seems that you are saying "Enjoy, a little sad to leave after seeing the beautiful place" etc. Best wishes to you.

Thank you for your participation in Geo-Quest Mystery – Week 1: The Origin Point. Here is an evaluation of the post by @max-pro, following the official Week 1 rubric for Geo-Quest Mystery.

Evaluation Summary

CriteriaScoreComments
1. SteemAtlas Pin & Description1.45 / 1.5Excellent pin clarity: precise place name (National Martyrs' Monument Helipad, Savar) with coordinates, hours, and extra practical details (security, photography, type of place). Very visitor-friendly.
2. Creativity of Mission & Hidden Clue1.4 / 2.0The helipad next to the National Memorial is a unique and original Origin Point, and the post has a strong “history hunter” angle. However, the required hidden clue (one word hidden via acrostic or emoji code) is not clearly verifiable the emoji line expresses mood/identity but doesn’t clearly encode a single word for readers to guess.
3. Speem.watch Proof Video1.6 / 2.0A proof video link (IPFS) is provided and the post indicates “Posted with Speem.” For full points, present a direct Speem.watch link and include a clear spoken line: “This is where my Geo-Quest journey begins because…” while filming recognizable markers (H sign / helipad field / memorial view).
4. Storytelling Quality1.75 / 2.0Strong descriptive observation, good context about VIP use, security, and the emotional link to national history. The narrative is coherent and ties the location to the idea of “where my thinking journey begins.” A slightly more personal moment (first time / specific memory) would make it even stronger.
5. Photos Quality & Authenticity1.5 / 1.5High-quality and consistent photos showing the helipad, signage, grass layout, cleaning activity, and nearby infrastructure with an excellent proof.
6. Engagement (Comments / Clue Guessing)0.4 / 1.0Light interaction is present, but based on your note, there is no clear evidence of visiting at least two other entries and attempting to guess their hidden clues.

Final Score: 8.1 / 10

Remarks:
This is one of the stronger Week 1 entries in terms of location uniqueness, documentation, and SteemAtlas quality. To push it higher, ensure the hidden clue is a clearly guessable single-word code (acrostic/emoji-code spelling a word), and strengthen engagement by guessing clues on at least two other participants’ posts.
