Hello ,

Friends how are you all, hope all are well and healthy. I am also fine and healthy. Once again going to share a beautiful travel experience with you. This blog will be a very heartwarming episode for those who love to travel. There are some travel destinations where there is so much to learn. Much historical knowledge is gained. And traveling does not mean eating and drinking. These places are famous for gaining knowledge. These places are worth all the sacrifices. It's expensive for that. Today I am going to present in this blog some information about such a place and travel to that place. The place is the world heritage Sundarbans in the south of Bangladesh which is full of natural beauty.Today I am going to participate in a travel contest organized by the World of Expillar community. I thank @benoitblanc sir for organizing such a beautiful pageant."

Sundarbans literally means beautiful forest or beautiful forest in Bengali. Sundarbans may be named after the beautiful trees, which grow there in abundance. Other possible explanations are that it may have been named after "sea forest" or "Chandra-Bandhe (Bandhe)" (ancient aborigines). But it is generally assumed that Sundarbans got its name from the beautiful tree. Sundarbans are locally known as Bada or Badaban, Huloban, Shuloban, Mal, Mahal. Bada means the forest where the tide flows. During the British colonization, the name of this Badar became Mahal, Madhumhal, Golmahal

During the Mughal period (1203-1538) a local king leased the entire Sundarbans. Among the fundamental changes desired in the historic legal changes are the recognition of the world's first mangrove forests to come under scientific supervision. The Sundarbans area was mapped in 1757 shortly after the East India Company obtained a patent from the Mughal emperor Alamgir II. The forest area came under organizational management after the establishment of the Forest Department in the then Bengal province of India around 1860 AD.

The Sundarbans were recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site on 6 December 1997. Although the Bangladeshi and Indian parts of the Sundarbans are actually contiguous parts of the same unbroken landmass, they are listed under different names on the UNESCO World Heritage List; Named as 'Sunderban' and 'Sunderban National Park' respectively. Despite these protections, the Indian Sundarbans was considered endangered in the 2020 assessment under the IUCN Red List of Ecosystem Framework. The Sundarbans is a web of small islands with ocean currents, mudflats and salinity of mangrove forests.

Anyway, this was some history of Sundarbans. Now we went on a trip to that beautiful forest with family friends and 15 people to find some time. We all fix a day together. After that we first went by train to Khulna city, from where Sundarbans was very close. We all travel to some spots of Sundarbans. I will describe the blogs of all the spots step by step. Today I will share some travel experience with the first spot Karamjal.

For Sundarbans tour, first we rent a residential hotel in Mongla port near Sundarbans, for overnight stay and to keep the luggage safe. Then we go to Pasur river first to go to Karamjal, the first spot of Sundarbans.

---

---

After reaching the Pasur river, we hired a medium boat for the whole day, so that we all can travel comfortably. Since the river has to go far, the first spot is Karmajal, so we all started the journey with food and fresh water.

We enjoyed the journey very much. I enjoyed the natural beauty around the river and took pictures. The view around was amazing.

---

This is how we slowly came closer to Karamjal after seeing the view around.

We all enter the Karamjal spot. First we entered the museum to see pictures of various species of animals including some dolphins. Next we went to Karamjal Deer Sanctuary. Where some deer were kept for breeding. Then we visited the crocodile breeding center. Took some pictures and took pictures. This is how we continue to enjoy the beauty of Sundarbans. After that a high tong was built around the Karamjal so that all the tourists could go around and see everything in the forest. A long watch tower is built next. So that all the tourists can enjoy the view from above. This is how I went around all the places and saw everyone together.

After we explore the first spot of Sundarbans for the whole day, we have some food. Then we explore some more places, then we return to the boat to return from Karamjal spot in Sundarbans. I didn't want to leave such a beautiful natural scene. But there is nothing to do, I have to come back. We all boarded the boat and returned to the residential hotel at Mangla port. My body felt a little weak from the fatigue of the whole day, so I went to sleep early after dinner. This was my Sundarbans tour. First spot karamjal nature scene blog. Hope everyone will like it. Thanks everyone.
