Asia : South Asia : Bangladesh : Chittagong Division : Bandarban
Bandarban Hill District
is the most remote and least populated district in Bangladesh. The
lure of the tallest peaks of Bangladesh, treks through virgin forests
and chance to meet more than 15 tribes of the region up close is
growing both among Bangladeshis and tourists from other countries.
Since the insurgency ceased in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (a cluster
that includes all three hill districts of Bangladesh) it has opened up
for tourists more than a decade back, though some of the western
tourist guides may still describe the area as a major security risk
