Bangladesh  a small country in south East Asia, where you can find the blend of both East and West of the world. It is full of scenic beauty, mostly green and full of rivers channels flown to the sea of Bay of Bengal. This country is a delta country almost built by the sediments and silts flown by mighty rivers of Ganges and Brahmaputra from Himalaya mountain range.  It is surrounded in 3 sides by India and little part by Myanmar in eastern side. In south, is the  Bay of Bengal.

It has the longest sandy open beach of the world named Coxes Bazar beach. Another famous beach is Kua Kata where from visitors can watch Sunrise and Sunset in the ocean from the same point of beach, which is very rare in the world.

For Green lovers, Sundarban of Bangladesh is having a beautiful sea front mangrove forest, which stretches almost all the south of the country. It is a spectacular view of wild nature. Here houses the famous Royal Bengal Tiger, the Spotted Deer, thousands of spices of birds, reptiles, insects etc.

It is easier for visiting this forest by boat and yates. Visitors can get the glimpses of the Royal Bengal Tiger and shoot photo from a safe distance. The spotted deers are abundant. Shooting allowed by camera not by gun. thousands of marshy swam streams are the home of crocodiles and other reptiles.

Most interesting is the birds. Visitors can find many rare specimens of birds in Sundarban.  

Anyone interested in passing some peaceful time on-land with adequate protection can do so. They can stay couple of days inside the forest in huts / banglows  made and maintained by Government. All the modern amenities are available. Can enjoy fresh sea and also sweet water fish.
