Destination Salimpur

We have started early in the morning as we will return after dusk! The majestic natural beauty we are looking for; we are going by walking then three-wheelers and finally an engine boat to cross the beautiful "Arial Khan River".

Arial Khan is a beautiful and aggressive river, Salimpur is our destination which is surrounded from three sides by this majestic river, just one side to the North you would find land; otherwise it would be a riverlock village. Though most of the business is done on riverways as it is easier, the north side land-way is not suitable and not modernized only mud road.
People use engine boats and small ferries & ships to reach their destinations.

It will be in my mind for years!

It took about a couple of hours to reach the bank of the Arial Khan. We might have reached by half an hour but we stopped at a few places to see the Bamboo Bridge, Betel Leaf Garden, and the Hindu Mot.

We crossed the river by engine boat and reached our destination. Rice fields, Jute fields, and many unknown trees made us nostalgic. During the winter season field turned yellow with mustard trees at the same place! Here crops grow twice with different season demands.

house of Betel Tree, many things in the village follow recycling process, you would amaze to find! See the house made with thousands of Jute trees & many bamboos!

The line of Betel trees looks amazing.

Bamboo-bridges which are man-made, do not think they will break within weeks but they are going to stay for a couple of years and good quality bamboo would remain the same for years.

one thing would be fascinating, the misty morning starts in the late summer. The scenario changes within a moment of dawn & summer heat starts.

Land after land you would find here, A small piece of land in the middle would be the home of a farmer who grows food for us with a little reward.

Rich land doesn't need additional fertilizer to grow such a beautiful Jackfruit tree, this season at least 50 fruit it would provide to its owner.

Seems our journey ends soon! We have arrived near the banks of the Arial Khan River where the sky meets the water. The magical sunset will be remembered year after year. We waited until it became dark and crossed the river by engine boat afterward.

Our visit ends in the afternoon and we wanted to be here until dusk as we wanted to see the sunset! It was magical actually, though we missed the proper sunset due to clouds but we are happy to watch the colors of the sky at dusk.

Many Thanks!
