Travelers
come to sylhet mostly to enjoy the natural beauty of Jaflong, Tamabil and Madhabkunda waterfall. Lalakhal is
somewhat unfamiliar to the tourist but undoubtedly an delighted place of
interest. “Sharighat” on the way to Jaintapur and Jaflong. It takes about 1 hour from Sylhet to Sharighat. One can hire
engine boat to go to Lalakhal from Sharighat. This boat
journey of Lalakhal is through the Shari river. The water in this river is
very clear and color is blue. This river is shared with India. The origin of this river is
in the Meghalaya state of India. This river carries huge amount of sediments
and stones from the upstream to Bangladesh and local people lift those stone
for business purpose.
Journey to
the Lalakhal through Shari river is really an wonderful experience.
This is a
remote place on the both side of the river. You
can watch the mountain range of Meghalaya from the boat journey. The more you
forwarded to Lalakhal the water colour becomes greener. People washing their
clothes and bathing in the green water are very much charming. One must be
insisted to jump in the river for swimming.
Though the
river is not so deep but some drowned news have been reported during swimming
in this river. Use life jacket before swimming. There are some hilly snakes in
the river bank. So, watch your steps
