TOURISM IN BANGLADESH
Introduction: Tourism is a source of joy and pleasure. Being tired of the cares and monotony of life at home, a man wants to get away for a few days. When he makes a tour just for pleasure, he is called a tourist. So the place a tourist visits must abound with such pleasures and comforts as would make him feel really happy.
Prospect of tourism in Bangladesh: Bangladesh is very much rich in natural beauties and abounds in sites of historical interest. She can be one of the world’s finest attractions for the pleasure- seekers.
Places of tourism in Bangladesh: Bangladesh has some places, with uncommon scenic beauties which always attract the tourists. Cox’s Bazar, Kaptai, Sylhet, the Sundarbans, the Chittagong Hill Tracts, among others, are blessed with enchanting natural beauties. Cox’s Bazar has the world’s largest natural sand beach. The wide beach at low tide is the pleasure-seekers’ paradise. The silvery beach with an evergreen picturesque background is the tourist’s ideal dream land. The Kaptai lake is famous for its charming scenic beauty. Sylhet is famous for her evergreen tea gardens on the sloping hills. So Sylhet is known as the land of ‘two leaves and a bud’ and of saints and pirs. It is also a happy resort of migratory birds. The Sundarbans, with their attractive flora and fauna, present an unforgettable scene to the tourists. There are many other beautiful things in Bangladesh. Nature seems to have lavishly bestowed on this land all her beauty and bounty. The grassy plains and hills, rivers and streams and the evergreen trees and plants present a panoramic view. All these make the land a romantic resort for the tourists.
Dhaka-its own attractions: Dhaka, the capital, has its own attractions. It is specially famous for its mosques and monuments, both old and new. Among the old ones, the Lalbag Fort, Bara Katra, Chhota Katra, Hossaini Dalan, the Tara mosque have special attraction for the tourists. Among the new ones, the Baitul Mukarram, the central Shahid Minar and the National Museum are worth seeing.
Places of historical interest and spiritual heritage: Besides, there are a good number of places of historical interest in Bangladesh. Mahasthangarh in Bogra, Paharpur in Rajshahi and Mainamati in Comilla can satisfy the tourists deeply who are interested in archaeological and cultural history of Bangladesh. The Darghas of Shah Jalal at Sylhet, Bayazid Bustami in Chittagong, Shah Makhdum in Rajshahi and Khan Jahan Ali at Bagerhat are no less attractive to the tourists who are interested in our spiritual heritage.
Local people: The people of a place with their distinct manners and customs can easily attract the tourists. The ways of lie of the tribal people in Bangladesh such as the Garos, the Chankmas and others are no less attractive. Any tourist who is used to drinking tea will be delighted to see the local woman picking tea leaves in the tea gardens with bamboo baskets on their backs. The tribal dances and songs are always attractive to the tourists.
The Parjatan Corporation of Bangladesh: Bangladesh has a good prospect in tourism but she is yet to be developed in this field. Bangladesh Parjatan Corporation has been trying to develop tourism and to attract more and more tourists. The Parjatan Corporation has already set up some motels at Cox’s Bazar, Chittagong, Rangamati and Bogra for the convenience of the tourists. It has been trying to take such other steps as would encourage more and more tourists to visit our country.
Conclusion: Though Bangladesh is an ideal land for the tourists, much is yet to be done to develop tourism in Bangladesh. More comfortable and inexpensive motels and rest houses have to be built for the tourists. Above all, our tourists attractions have to be given wider publicity at home and abroad. We must make a tourist’s visit to our country rewarding and worth remembering. Then tourism will turn into a profit-earning industry for our country.
