We will basically stay on board for two nights and three days and explore the natural beauty of the entire Sundarbans by ship. When our morning breakfast was complete they told us all to sit in the dining room for a while.Some briefings will be on Sundarbans travel. Our tourguide was fully explaining our Sundarbans travel map. Where do we start our journey and where will it end.

So one day so on the first day our journey started to visit Andar Manik of Sundarbans.
They gave us 20 minutes to get ready in twenty minutes.

Our journey to Andarmanik begins.Our ship has entered the Sundarbans and the trees that can be seen from around the entrance to the Sundarbans will tell us that we are now towards the Sundarbans.Our ship is moving, sometimes the kennels are seen somewhere the ship is sinking into the canal on the right and somewhere on the left. Looks pretty good. Ships are running in Pasur river, Pasur river is an extension of the Rupsa river.Pasur river flows through Sundarbans and joins the ocean estuary.

Location


In the Pasur River, the water is quite murky and looking at the water, it seems as if sand is floating in the water.I stand and look around the Sundarbans. I like the weather. Sometimes big ships are seen again and small fishing boats are seen somewhere.


Ships have moved more towards Sundarbans mangrove forests, mangrove forests can be seen from a distance. I'm recording what I like when it's on mobile.We are very close to Andar Manik so can't go forward because this is where the ship's anchor has to be dropped for low tide. This river carries tidal water.When only forest plants were seen on both sides of the river during the morning tide, now there is grazing again.
We had a small engine driven boat barrier with the ship. We all sat in that engine driven boat one by one. We were 42 in total. On the other hand, someone is doing this whole video of us, he has his own YouTube channel, upload the video on it. Everyone like everyone else we're busy in the boat.Ten minutes passed between rumors of the story in the boat and we came AndarManik.

It was here that everyone got off the boat and as we got off, our Sundarbans Forest Officer gave us some guidelines because we should all be together.As it is a forest area, it is home to a variety of forest animals, especially the Royal Bengal Tiger. So when alone, ferocious animals can come and attack.
We were standing and listening to him. A few more ships like us have come here and there will be more people so let us our MB festival people roam together.

I first saw a watch tower here.Then I started walking and then the first tree I saw was called Dagar tree in Bangladeshi language, Mangrove apple tree and said, Sonartia caseolaris (L.) tree. The fruit of the tree looks very beautiful and is very similar to the Persimmon fruit.Apart from seeing the fruit, I also saw the fruit of a tree covered with many ants.

This tree, which looks like a coconut tree known to some other trees in the forest, is a Golpata tree . I saw some trees like a fern.As this site is a tourist spot, tourists are guided by a trail with cement casts to see the forest inside. We all started walking down the trail. We're moving in the forest.Many trees in mangrove forests can be seen from a distance, especially Sundori trees.Gewa tree,
Bine trees, keora trees ,Passur tree etc.

It is also seen that these respiratory roots are and the roots of all the plants that grow in muddy and saline soil are the roots of the respiratory tract. The soil of this place contains a lot of inorganic salt, so the roots of the plant extract the roots in this way to absorb oxygen.
Then while walking I saw the footprints of the deer and finally I saw the footprints of an animal

Thus the entire trail and the different types of plants inside us ended up visiting the inner forest. I saw many types of trees, some trees were lying dead, and after some trees died, there were natural holes in the tidal water, snakes hide in this tree place.

And we started coming towards the watch tower. Here I saw a tree that was Tiger Fern.Tigers hide inside this tree. Some of the leaves on the plant are yellow and nut-coloured from a distance it doesn't look like a tiger is hiding.

At we didn't see forest deer so made a zoo here for 3-4 deer to show.
I did a photo shoot, then I came to the watch tower, if it was a little difficult to climb the watch tower, but the entire area of Sundarbans looked like a very beautiful area full of greenery.

Then we were called to go to the boat after visiting the tourist spots all over the Andermanik.Then we all got into the boat and got underway to take us aboard.We arrived on our ship and as soon as we arrived we were asked to have lunch in the dining room.So we sat down to eat according to our choice for lunch and all the family had lunch with very expensive delicious and delicious food Our Andermanik journey is over, the whole afternoon we looked around four or five from the ship and the sun was setting so we were sitting and resorting to sun-drowning scenery. This is how the Sundarbans one-day site scene visit ended.

The other foods we were served on the ship today, from afternoon snacks to dinner, were all pretty fun.After the night chat, the ship mooved to a canal and could not spend the night in the Passur river at night.The ship anchored and today we'll spend the night on the ship and today's travel blog ends here.
