Eid is the biggest religious festival in Bangladesh, which also happens to be an occasion perfect for rekindling bonds with family and friends alike. Diving into the vicinity of nature, or the adrenaline rush of sliding down a waterfall, or hiking up a steep trail – any of these options might be exactly what you need, after the arduous fasting you’re about to put yourself through. Here’s a list of places you might like to travel to, this Eid, with your family and friends:
Sylhet
Sylhet is the best place to visit during the monsoon; you’ll get to visit the only freshwater swamp forest in our country, ‘Ratargul’ Swamp forest, which also happens to be a terrain for a variety of creatures. You could also visit, ‘Bisnakandi’ and ‘Jaflong’, arguably the greatest landscape beauty in Bangladesh, amidst hills and tea gardens. Mostly a quarry, ‘Bisnakandi’ is a village where the Khasi Mountains converge, with dark clouds hanging around them, along the stream of a majestic waterfall. And for a comfortable place to retire in, there’s always Jovago, to help you find the best.
Kuakata
Gentle tides crashing down on the picturesque beach, where you can just sink in the tranquility of the Mother Nature – pretty much sums up the experience you’re going to get visiting the Kuakata sea beach. Gangamati Reserved Forest, an eco-forest, lies in the proximity of the beach. After you are done with these places, you can also treat your eyes to the scenic beauty of ‘Fatrar Char’ and ‘Lebur Char’.
Sajek and Marissa Valley
Gazing at gorgeous hills hugging the white clouds, reminiscing the good old days with friends or family in a bamboo cottage, and witnessing the sunrise and sunset from the peaks- ‘Sajek’ will be the epitome of your coveted chill trip. Just around the corner, you can also enjoy the ethnically aesthetic ‘Marissa Valley’.
Cox’s Bazar
World’s longest sea beach doesn’t need an introduction, and neither do it need me to speculate on its timeless beauty; you already know how perfect of a Eid getaway the place would be. And while you are there, you could also visit the stone covered ‘Inani Beach’ and catch the blue tides of ‘Himchari Beach’, and in case you need to add more excitement to the trip, you could head on to ’Kana Raja’s Cave’.
Bandarban
Lush green hill tracks and waterfalls of Bandarban, promise to leave you enthralled. Bandarban will provide everything you ever wanted in a trip; an amazing sanctuary called ‘Buddha Dhatu Jadi’, cloud hugging mountains of ‘Nilgiri’ and ‘Nilachal’, the adventurous ‘Keokradong’ trek, and the list goes on.
