Bangladesh, the most understated part of South-East Asia, has all the beauty that nature can bestow upon a country. So inspired was Bernier with Bangladesh’s beauty that he said, “it has a hundred gates open for entrance but not one for departure.” Although blessed with such diverse natural beauty, much of its beauty is still unexplored and only a few people are aware of its allure. With one of the largest river system in the world and an extensive marine ecosystem, Bangladesh’s picturesque beauty is worth acknowledging.

With such extensive biodiversity and world’s largest river systems in the world, Bangladesh deserves much more importance and exploitation then at present. The vast water system makes it an agricultural country and allows production of some major crops thus aiding in Bangladesh’s economy. The beautiful bay of Bengal along with its islands and huge forests make its landscape very attractive and worth seeing.
