THE DIARY GAME

Hello friends how are you all? Hope everyone is well.
Assalamu Alaikum everyone.
Anyway, I shared some of my feelings and experiences with everyone.
This article of mine can help those who will go to Cox's Bazar, Inani, Himchari...

Better Life

Cox's Bazar: We leave Uttara by train for Chittagong, the train leaves the station at 10 pm. There were 4 of us, I have not taken some food for everyone to eat on the train and since the cost of food on the train is high, I made this plan to reduce the cost a little. While we were going to tell a little story, after some time everyone was getting sleepy and not everyone was a little sleepy. When it's 4 am we realize we won't have much time because we're getting closer.

At 5.30 in the morning, we got down from the train and after washing our faces we freshened up a bit and left at the check post next to the ticket counter. We gasped for CNG outside Chittagong railway station as we rushed to board the bus. We don't have CNG for new bridge because there are many buses and we have to leave very soon and there is Marsa bus counter from where we have to buy tickets. It takes 3 to 3 and a half hours to go from Chittagong to Cox's Bazar. CNG takes us only 20 minutes. Then we leave for Cox's Bazar by our specific bus.

Color of seabeach

We went at the end of winter, so we take light heavy clothes to avoid the cold but there is no winter in Cox's Bazar. There is a lot of cold wind at night, for that you should take light winter clothes, mufflers, ear hats. But there is no point in making the bag thicker with more winter clothes.

We went to Hotel Ostra Rico. The service was not that wonderful, but not that horrible either. Although we got the seaview room from there, since we were on 6th floor, we could see the sea really nicely. From there Labni and Sugandha points are easy to reach. It takes roughly 10 minutes. Between Labni and Kalatali, Sugandha is crowded. Kalatali is crowded, while Labani Point is quietest.

Those who have a lot of fear in their minds about mobile network, will there be proper mobile network, can you use net on mobile? For them, you don't have to worry. Airtel, Banglalink, GP, and Robi have full networks. I have GP and Airtel sim. I have taken it. I have uploaded photos even in the middle of the sea with the GP network. So, I request everyone to take the GP SIM. Sometimes there is no Airtel network in the middle of the sea. Yet the GP network is always there.

A good memory

Let's talk about the food and drink. The host below the hotel provided all our meals in Cox's Bazar. They cook well. Their noon vegetable dish will impress. There are 7/8 bharta + bhaji. Take another fish. That one will be eaten. We were eating coral, loita fry, poa fish, rupchanda fish. Due to the high demand of rupchanda fish, this fish is not always available. And the national fish of Cox's Bazar is coral fish. You will always get this fish. Try Cox's Bazar's Parota and Tandoori. Each Parota and Tandoori is monster-shaped. After 2 hours, you won't be able to move.

And if you want to shop in Cox's Bazar, the first thing you need to do is manage a local person who can speak the regional language of Cox's Bazar. If they encounter a local, retailers give away stuff for cheap. We have proof. Maybe. Many people think that if they haggle, they will sell it to you at a lower price. But you have to notice one thing that now is the tourist season. You have to sell things to yourself, not like that. You go, other people will come to that shop again. Well, they will. They put a price tag on everything. So, it will be a wise thing to take a local person. And for shopping, instead of going to the market next to the beach, the huge oyster market attached to Kalatali beach, everything is better than the Burmese market near the oyster market.

And be careful while bathing in the sea. If feasible, take a football with you to Cox's Bazar. You may have fun playing beach football. And be careful while bathing so that salt water does not enter your throat.
At night, you will take a turn in the sea. The moon in the sky, the wide sea on the side, it is a different experience.

With friends

Himchari: Himchari National Park is relatively close from Cox's Bazar. It's worth seeing. It is not that beautiful, but it can be continued as beautiful. The steps are not counted. It is a little difficult for everyone to climb the butt. But after going to the top, you will forget everything. The green nature around, seeing the sea from so high, will fill your mind with another joy. There is a ticket for which you have to pay 20 taka.

After going down again, you will go to the sea on the other side of the road. You'll see many sandbags. A distinct kind of sandbag. That's a good idea. Visit and be amazed. We watch the sunset there in the afternoon because I adore the afternoon frost because there. There are less people then, you can take pictures as much as you want and you can find many marine resources. We took our lunch in Himchari because the coral feeding fun of the hotels there is different.

All are enjoying sunset

#Inani Beach
Inani beach is 30 minutes from Himachari.
Honestly speaking, there is not much difference between the beach of Cox's Bazar and Inani Beach. However, many people call Inani a private beach because there are less people here and the scattered stones will be very nice, you can sit and enjoy the sea. You can shop in Inani. The pricing is lower than Cox's Bazar. Before entering the water, remember Inani's high water current. Big waves come. Thus, you may fall. Hence, keep this in mind before going into deeper water.

You can drink water of coconut in Inani, if you get a good dab, it will be very misty and you will want to eat a lot but there will be less space in your stomach

We also went to Ramu where buddist are available.

We fixed CNG for Himchari and Inani for TK 1000.
Since we leave the hotel early to take a ship to St. Martin, we prepare for it.
