Sights:
St. Martin is the most beautiful and demandable tourist destination island in Bangladesh. It’s a very small island, totally 08 sp km and appx. 15 km long. It’s the only coral island of Bangladesh. Totally white sandy beach, deep blue water, count less coconut tree, dry fresh posses’ center and lots of attractions are waiting to receive you. It’s is eastern-southern part of Bangladesh and last land of Bangladesh in southern side. It is 530 kilometres from Dhaka. Anyone can go to there by a/c non a/c bus from Dhaka to Teknaf(10hours journey). Then Teknaf to St. Martin by Vassal (02hours journey). Blue Marine, Prince Heaven, Prasad Paradise and Abakash Parjaton are the good quality hotel in St. Martin.

Cox’s Bazar – Welcome to beach life, Bangladeshi style. The usual question, ‘Why have you come here?’ doesn’t get asked because the answer is obvious – you’ve come to be at the seaside. Bangladeshis adore Cox’s Bazar and all across the country people will ask whether you have been. For Bangladeshis the infatuation is because Cox’s Bazar is so unlike the rest of the country, but a foreign visitor, used to the clean, liberal sands of Spain, Australia or California, is likely to be far less enamoured. The beach itself is a lovely, long (very long!), and surprisingly clean slip of sand, but by no stretch of even the most enthusiastic imagination can it be described as the ‘number one natural wonder of the world’, which is exactly how Bangladeshis, through an online web vote (which you will be asked constantly to partake in) are promoting it. The way to get the most out of Cox’s Bazar is not to think of it as a beach holiday, but rather to treat it as a way to relax with middle-class Bangladeshis at play by just surrendering to their holiday enthusiasm.

Sundarbans National Park – A shroud of mystery and danger looms over the Sundarbans National Park, the largest mangrove swamp in the world. This gloomy forest of baffling waterways stretches some 80km into the hinterland from the coast and its name translates into the ‘beautiful forest’, a misnomer if ever there were one. For most people, the Sundarbans is a horrifying matrix where, on average, a person is eaten every third day. To venture into this forest is to return to a primeval world of big trees and big creatures. It is one of the wildest and least known environments in all of southern Asia.

The Sundarbans begins about 5km southwest of Mongla along the Pusur River, and covers an area (split between Bangladesh and India, with the tiger’s share in Bangladesh), of about 10, 000 sq km, which is around half of what it was just 200 years ago. About one-third of the total area of this forest is covered in water – river channels, canals and tidal creeks varying in width from a few metres to a few kilometres. The land is constantly being reshaped by tidal action, and cyclones also wreak their havoc.

Rajshahi – Built on the northern bank of the Padma River, Rajshahi is a frantic and fun university town with enough colour and attractions to entertain for a few days. It also makes an excellent base from which to dig through the layers of history in Gaud, Puthia and Natore.

The river bank by the Padma River affords one of the best river views in the country and, in the late afternoon, a carnival-like atmosphere pervades with people strolling and chatting, children playing and vendors selling ice cream and other snack food.

Chittagong – The sticky city of Chittagong (the second-largest city in Bangladesh, with a population of around four million) is the country’s busiest port. The constant stream of super ships that line its docks bring with them more than just material goods – they bring ideas, fashions and philosophies from around the world. It’s this cosmopolitan exchange of minds that makes Chittagong such a fascinatingly different side of Bangladesh to explore for a few days.
