Dulahazra Safari Park

Bangladesh is a diverse country that attracts thousands of visitors each year. Tourists flock to the country to experience its unique culture, meet its friendly locals and enjoy the magnificence of the country’s wildlife. Many reserves and conservation projects have been established in Bangladesh to protect its rare wildlife and bird populations, and one such breathtaking eco-tourism initiative is the Dulahazra Safari Park.

Dulahazra Safari Park was developed on an undulating landscape of around 2,224 acres of area at Chakaria Upazila in Cox's Bazar District, Bangladesh, some 107 km away from the port city, with an objective to create facilities for eco-tourism, research work and entertainment aside from conserving wild animals in a natural environment.

Dulahazra Park is home to at least 4,000 animals of 165 species. After the new government took over in January 2007, joint forces rescued many of these new residents of the park during their drives at houses and establishments owned by graft suspects. The seized and donated animals recently sent to the park include 90 spotted deer (chital), 42 barking deer (maya, a species of muntjac deer), three sambar deer, one freshwater crocodile, one saltwater crocodile, nine black bear, four pythons, 17 peacocks, 19 Turkish pheasants and two emus.The park itself protects a large number of wild elephants which are native to the area. In the safari park there are domesticated elephants which are available for a ride. Other animal attractions include lions, Bengal tigers, Crocodiles, Bears, Chitals and lots of different types of birds and monkeys.

Visitors can be driven through the park by jeep to explore the extraordinary wildlife, and there is a specially constructed tower for tourists where they are able to look out over the park and view numerous animals. It is really the ideal attraction for a family outing, as it is also a research centre that focuses on conserving the environment as well as educating the public.

A Natural Tourist Spot In Bangladesh "JAFLONG"

Jaflong is one of the best tourism spots in Bangladesh. This spot is situated in Sylhet (one of the division headquarters in Bangladesh). The spot is situated between Bangladesh and Indian-remote hilly forests. The place is below the mountain range and so, it is popular for white stone collection that comes from the hilly river. Khasi is one of the tribal people in Bangladesh who live in Jaflong.

 

 

 

 

The place is 60Km far away from the town and as an assumption, it takes about 2 hours long drive. The white stones come from the Mari River in India. From this spot, you can go to Tamabil, Sripur and Jaintapur tourism spot in Sylhet.

 

 

 

There are also other attraction in that spot such as Green Forests Mountain View, Green Tea Garden, Khasia Rajbari ( a palace where King existed many years back), Dauki River and Bazar, Nut and betel leaf gardens, Piyain River and also colorful tribal life.
