Shitakundo Eco-park


Introduction:
             Bangladesh is one of the few countries in South Asia, which remains to be explored. Bangladesh has a delicate and distinctive attraction of its own to offer and it is definitely not a tourist haunt like Nepal or India. Bangladesh is like a painter's dream come true with a rich tapestry of colors and texture. The traditional emphasis of the tourist trade has always been on the material facilities offered by a country rather than on its actual charms. This may be a reason why Bangladesh has seldom been highlighted in the World's tourist maps.

               Sitakundu (Shitakundu Eco-park) The famous Chandranath Temple &  Buddhist temples are in Sitakundu, 37Km  for from Chittagong city.
