 Traveler directorial Map

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sundarbans, a vast saltwater swamp forest forming the downstream of the Padma-Brahmaputra River delta in southern Bangladesh. Sundari is the one of the dominating mangrove trees that grow abundant in the area. It is thought that vast swamp name to be derived from mangrove Sundari. Sundari, in English “Pretty Lady”. Sundari, gewa, nipa palms and other salt-tolerant species are the dominant flora in the mangrove forest.

This swamp forest is an abode for variety of animal species. Notably, it is one of the last preserves of Bengal tigers and other endangered mammals. Spotted deer, wild boars, otters, wildcats, and Ganges river dolphins, they all have been struggling against their near future extinction. Several species that once inhabited the region—including Javan rhinoceroses, guar and water buffalo—are now believed to be extinct there. Dozen different reptile and amphibian species are found in Sundarbans, mainly crocodiles, marine turtles, cobras and Indian pythons. More than 325 bird species reside here—including storks, hornbills, waders, white ibis, kingfishers and other raptors such as sea eagles.

Three noncontinuous wildlife sanctuaries have been set up in the Bangladesh part of Sundarbans. And those were named a World Heritage site in 1997. UNESCO has also demarcated the entire Sundarbans including Bangladesh and Indian parts as a biosphere reserve.
