Tanguar Haor, renowned as one of the largest natural water reservoirs in South Asia, has attained Ramsar site status due to its remarkable natural and aquatic attributes, as recognized by the IUCN. The landscape of this site transforms with the changing seasons, captivating tourists from across the globe. In the rainy season, the Haor metamorphoses into a vast expanse akin to a sea, characterized by powerful waves, offering visitors an unforgettable cruising experience.

    Tanguar Haor is surrounded by the wonderful beauty of God’s creation. Which will be destroyed if not preserved with very strong hands! Because of the amount of boats that have been built and the amount of waste material of each boat is constantly being dumped inside the Tangua Haor, which contains all kinds of waste, including plastic bottles, plastic packets, polythene, etc. By doing that, this beauty will probably turn into a polluted water body soon!🥲 So if you want to protect it, it is not necessary to suppress it with a strong hand now. There are already less places of beautiful environment in Bangladesh and it is probably going to be lost.

    Glimpse of some shots from my phone. Tanguar haor is undoubtedly a good choice for the weekend.
    Soft reminder: Don’t listen to the boat owner’s direction always. It may ruin your moments. Less time in a good place, worst sailing place for night etc. 😐 Just enjoy with your capacity.

    হাওরের প্রাকৃতিক সৌন্দর্য এবং শান্তির মধ্যে নৌকায় এক রাত এবং দুই দিন কাটানোর অভিজ্ঞতা ছিল অসাধারণ। সৌভাগ্যক্রমে, সেদিন ওয়েদার ছিল দারুণ আর হাওর ভ্রমনের ক্ষেত্রে আবহাওয়া খুবই গুরুত্বপূর্ণ ! রদেলা দিন কিছুটা গরমজনিত অস্বস্তি আনতে পারে। মেঘলা দিনই এখানে ভ্রমণের জন্য সবচেয়ে উপযুক্ত। উইকেন্ডে ভিড় হতে পারে, তবে তখনই সবচেয়ে বেশি নৌকা পাওয়া যায়। নিরাপত্তা নিয়ে কোনো চিন্তা নেই, তাই সঙ্গী ও পরিবারের সাথে নিশ্চিন্তে ভ্রমণ করা যায়।
