BANGLADESH BUDDHISM CULTURE TOUR

Tour Duration: 10 Days, 9 Nights

Bangladesh is the most potential destination for Buddhist culture since Buddhism was
originally spread from here and enlightened the whole world. The most important

travelled overland between 399-414 AD, Huen Tsang travelled between 629-645 AD and

visited Pundravardhana which is presently Mahasthangarh (in Bangladesh) and
preached his new Gospel at SAMATATA (South Eastern part of Bangladesh) including the
Lalmai and Moinamoti range. According to Arakanese book Rajoang that Buddha visited
BURMA (Mayanmar) with his disciple and from there in his return journey he visited
Hastigram, Amragram and Chandranath which is very near to Chittagong hill district of
Bangladesh. The holly hair relics and foot prints of Lord Buddha have been preserved in
the Nandan Kanan Buddhist Temple, Chittagong. From this valuable reserves some
portion were donated to Srilanka in 1957, to Japan in 1964, to Thailand in 1979 and

BANGLADESH ARCHAEOLOGICAL TOUR

The Treasure of North Bengal


Tour Duration: 07 Nights, 08 Days
The vast alluvial floodplain of North Bengal were a cradle of ancient Buddhist and Hindu
Kingdoms that held away over the region for centuries. Excavations at Mahasthangar
have revealed cultural layers dating back to the third century BC. Descriptions of the
area reached as far as Greece and China. Hiuen Tsiang, a Chinese traveller who visited
Mahasthangar between 638 645 AD, described an earlier visit to the city by the Buddha.
Ashoka, the great Mauryan emperor (250 BC), built a stupa in Mahasthangar to
commemorate a relic left there by the Buddha. During the first several centuries after
Christ many kingdoms- some Buddhist, others Hindu flourished, then decayed. In the
mid- eighth century the people, tired of anarchy, raised to the throne an indigenous
chief named Gopala. He began the famous Pala dynasty, whose kings ruled the lower
Ganges and Brahmaputra valleys for more than three hundred years. The Pala kings
were great patrons of art and learning. Eventually the Bangla school of Buddhism
spread north through Nepal to Tibet and south through Myanmar to Java. This trip will
give you the experience of the treasure of North Bengal that steals the attention of your
camera.

in the east of the country and close to the border with the Indian state of Tripura. This
region is full of wildlife hidden in its deep rainforests; however due to deforestation,
poaching and a growing human population most if not all of these animals are in serious
danger. We will aim to find some of the most impressive and rarest over the next three
days and try to highlight their plight. Depending on the local conditions the order we
visit the different parks here is changeable; but we will aim to visit Lowacharra National
Park today. Once in the park we will have guided walks into the forest to try and find the
very rare western hoolock gibbon which are more regularly seen here than anywhere
else (an estimate of 49 individuals living in the park was made in 2006). As well as the
gibbons, orange-bellied Himalayan squirrels, Indian muntjac, pig-tailed macaques and

world! Over 200-450 have been estimated to live in the park and we will try and track
one down…on foot! and this means a transfer in our vehicle from Dhaka to Mongla or
Khulna. If our boat is moored at Khulna we will have the added experience of crossing
the Padma River (the life blood of this burgeoning country) at one of its busiest points.
Once we are on our boat we will unpack and start our journey towards the Bay of
Bengal. Along the way we will see the hustle and bustle of Bangladesh begin to fade
away as the towns turn to villages which in turn become shacks and then nothing but
trees as far as the eye can see. There is a wealth of people who use the water ways
here and its brilliant to see the local people using fishing and harvesting techniques
many hundreds of years old. As well as the people and boats we will keep an eye out for
brahminy kites and grey-headed fish eagles soaring above and best of all the highly
endangered Gangetic river dolphins which briefly break the surface to blow. We will stop
at the Dhangmari forest office to gain permission to enter and meet our armed escorts
(which are mandatory for visiting the park). Our evening meal will be on board and we
will spend the night onboard as well.

Day 8: Sundrbans
Today we will continue our journey from Dhangmari to Kachikhali forest station (7-8
hours cruising). Here we will spend the night surrounded by mangrove forests, virgin
sea beaches and a view out into the Bay of Bengal. Tigers are regularly spotted here
and it’s not uncommon to see them prowling the beach at night or early morning as well
as herds of spotted deer and family groups of wild boar. We will spend an hour to two in
the evening with a spotlight to try and find some tigers.

Day 9: Sundarbans
Early morning before sunrise there will be the option to have an hour or so spotlighting
to see if there is a tiger having a drink at the rivers edge or even swimming across the
river; after this we will use small country boats to travel into the smaller creeks and
streams of the mangrove forest and look for drinking animals like chital, tigers, wild
boar, rhesus macaques as well as the local bird life such as white-throated kingfishers,
black-capped kingfishers, rudy king fisher green bee-eaters, little herons and the very
rare masked fin-foot. This trip will last an hour or two and after we will have breakfast
back on the boat. We then set off to Katka Game Sanctuary (1-2 hours) and on arrival
will leave the boat and have a hike through the jungle where we usually find fresh tiger
prints and hope to see on walking through the dense vegetation. We will spend some
time on the beach here and relax in one of the most wild and remote areas in the world.
Lunch will be served on the boat and in the afternoon we will explore some of the area
around the local forest station and see if we can find more evidence of tigers here. We
usually have a BBQ tonight for our evening meal with locally caught fish the main treat.
As yesterday there will be spotlighting after dark. We will once again spend the night on
the boat.

Day 10: Dhaka


Early in the morning there will be spotlighting offered to look to tigers before dawn.
Then after breakfast we will begin our journey back to Mongla / Khulna where we have a
good chance of spotting large estuarine crocodiles basking if the sun is out. Along with

to civilisation. Our lunch will be served onboard before we disembark and head back to
Dhaka for our last night in Bangladesh. Our evening meal will be at the accommodation.

Palace in Sylhet city, it is celebrated at Madhabpur and Adampur under Komalganj
Upazilla in Moulvibazaar in an even grander manner. Celebrated since 1769, the raash
festival has attracted not only the Monipuri community but people from diverse religious
backgrounds as well.

The tradition of observing the death anniversary of the great saint Hazrat Shah Jalal (R)

early October. Thousands of devotees throng his shrine. Various programmes including
those of spiritual music are held. With the vibrant participation of devotees, the city of
Sylhet adopts a colourful look. To commemorate the event every year a large number of
devotees wrap themselves in red shawls, go to Lakkatura and return to the shrine with

works on its walls and eye- catching visuals on the mosque allure tourists with an
interest in history and culture. As the feudal lords belonged to the Shiite Muslim sect,
Ashura has long been celebrated gleefully in this palace. The current successors of the
feudal lords still follow this tradition by organising a cultural fair in front of the palace
during the first 10 days of the lunar month of Muharram every year.

day his uncle, Sheikh Kabir gave Shah Jalal a handful of soil and asked him to travel to
India. He instructed him to choose to settle and propagate Islam in any place in India
where the soil exactly matches that which he gave him in smell and colour. Shah Jalal
journeyed eastward and reached Sylhet in c. 1300, where he met many great scholars
and Sufi mystics. The exact date of his death is debated, but he is reported by Ibn
Batuta to have died on 15 March 1346 CE. He left behind no descendants and was
