Miles of golden sands, towering cliffs, surfing waves, rare conch shells, colorful pagodas, Buddhist temples and tribes, delightful seafood--this is Cox's Bazar, the tourist capital of Bangladesh. If you are really adventurous and want to enjoy the wildness and madness of the ruff and tuff Sea you can come to Cox's bazar in the month of mid April, Sea continue its wildness till August; and its even more exotic if you come to Cox's Bazar in the time of depression of the Sea.

It appeared to me that Jaflong is more attractive than any other part of Sylhet. The following pic is taken on the way to Jaflong. It's best if you can start for Jaflong early in the morning, and these clouds playing on the hilltop will create a wonderful welcoming ceremony for you on the way.
