Hanging bridge of Rangamati

The Hanging bridge of Rangamati crosses over Kaptai lake. It’s 335 feet in length and offers the most amazing views of the lake and the small hills. You do need to buy a ticket to cross the bridge, but for the views and the thrill, it’s worth it. During the rainy season when the lake rises the bridge can sometimes be submerged underwater, so it’s not always accessible all year round.

This hanging bridge is in one of the most stunning locations in Bangladesh. There are many adventurous sites in Bandarban and this bridge offers fantastic views of the surrounding hills and waterways.

Another good thing that’s worth a mention is the fact the Bandarban Meghla Parjatan Complex also has a zoo, a small safari park and some jaw-dropping picnic areas, all of which deserves a visit while you are there.
