Calm morning on Ovoyaronyo


Way to Padmapukur (Lotus pond)


( Lotus Pond) There is a rumor that it is tiger's favorite place!


Beautiful pathway. It's like half mile long wooden pool. It was fragile and broken in some places. We walked at least 20 minutes on this pool. It was so green, calm and dreamy.


Romeo and Juliet ( crocodile couple) on eco park


Friendy deers in Eco park. This is actually sad! They are so near to Sundarban, but they are not free! 


At the End of Sundarban journey, our boat suddenly stuck on the bank of Mongla

Famous Sixty Gambuz Mosque in Bagherhaat.



These are the pillars of mosque. You can see internal structure of each dome at the top of roof.


Home of Peer khan Jahan Ali. Now all are destroyed and under soil.



This pond is known as "Thakur Dighi"
There was a rumor that- few giant crocodile live in the pond.
So its restricted for general people. People treat this pond water as holy water. 


Kodala Moth
This one is also at Bagerhaat. King Pratap Adityo built this monument
to honor his lady advisor Swarashati.

Finally last December I have visited beautiful Sundarbans. It was lovely experience!  We started our journey from Jatrabari. Then we spent whole night at Maowa ferighat. I met Rony vai there who is passionate photographer, traveler, food lover and overall good person. Next morning we arrived at Mongla. A little houseboat was waiting for us and we started our journey to Sundarbans. We were thirteen tourists in that houseboat and 4/5 boat people ( captain/chef/manager/helper/guard etc). Our boat roamed to many unknown river and places. I remember some of them like Porshu river, Shela river, Katka beach, Harin kata, Harbaria etc. From second day we saw very few tourist boats/ships as they dont go to deeper area. It was so calm and relaxing. Though there are some rumors about dark water pirates and I was little bit tensed but it was also a part of adventure. Boat manager assured that we are totally safe. It was first time in my life that we are moving forward for 6/7 hours without seeing other people or boat. I forgot about my regular life, complexity, trouble everything and it was wonderful to find myself. I loved illusions of nature, nights were so mysterious! Luckily we saw One tigress and two tiger cubs! It was my best tour so far!
