When you go here, it feels as if nature has decorated the surroundings with its own hands. When you look around from above, the green forests, small hilly roads and the touch of clouds fascinate the mind. The environment of the place is very calm and peaceful. From above, you can see the view of the mountains and the green trees around are cool and refreshing. An ideal place for nature lovers. The blue sky and the mountains meet here.

Local coffeehouse and restaurant

Some local foods are available here: mountain tea, fried rice, chips, chocolate, coconut and light snacks. The price of food is also reasonable. I bought a coconut for 120 BDT or 20 steem.

There is a local shop where the tribal people living in the hills sell various products made by their own hands. Most of the products are handmade bags. There is a collection of different types of bags here. Bags made of yarn, bags made of cloth, bags made of puthi and bags made of rattan. The price of these products depends on the material. The market price of the bags starts from 600 BDT or 100 steem.

Beautiful View from the park

The trip to Alu Tila was a very beautiful and memorable experience for me. When I was looking at the surrounding scenery on the top of the hill, it felt like I was standing in front of a huge canvas of nature. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this place gives mental peace. The behavior of the local people was very sincere and friendly. The people at the food stalls were also polite. Standing on the hill, enjoying the cool air and taking pictures was the most enjoyable part of the trip.


Why, among so many places, did you choose this one as your best recommendation?

Beauty of this park

There are many beautiful tourist places in Bangladesh, but Alu Tila Park in Khagrachari has a special feeling for me. I chose this place because the beauty of nature here is not only visible to the eyes, but also felt by the mind. When I stand on the top of the hill and look around, it feels as if the green mountains and the blue sky have merged together. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, traffic jams, noise and mental stress, this place gives people a different kind of peace.

What I like most is the quiet environment here. Many tourist places are overcrowded, noisy or artificial, but the natural beauty of nature still survives in Alu Tila. When you go here, you feel like you are very close to nature. The mountain breeze, the swaying of trees, the chirping of birds, all combine to create an environment that soothes the mind.

Photography zone

Another reason is that this place is great for photography. This is a great location for those who love nature or want to keep the memories of their travels. Watching the sunset standing on the hill in the afternoon is one of the most beautiful experiences of my life.

I think Alu Tila Park is the perfect place for those looking for peace of mind, spending quality time with family, or just a little escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. So despite all the space available, I chose it as my top recommendation.


2. What is the perfect time to visit and what is the vibe like at that moment?


1000111405.jpgAnother view point made with glass

The best time to visit Alu Tila is: Winter, post-monsoon, afternoon or morning. I have been here twice. In winter and at the end of winter. Both times the place was wonderful. The view of the mountains in the morning mist is very beautiful. And in the afternoon the sunset light makes the whole place look like a dream. Then the atmosphere is very calm, cool and gives a romantic feeling.


3. If you had to change something about this place, what would it be and why?


The natural beauty of Alu Tila Park is truly extraordinary, but I think that with some minor improvements, it can be more attractive and tourist-friendly.

Firstly, the number of clean washrooms needs to be increased. This issue is neglected in many tourist places, but it is very important for the travel experience. It is especially important to have improved sanitation facilities for women and children.

Secondly, I would like to see more informative guide boards for tourists. If there is information about where something is, which direction to go, or what the history of the place is, tourists will have a better experience.


4. If you had to invite someone from your family or a Steemian to visit this place, who would you take and what reasons would you give them to convince them to go?

If I had the chance, I would have taken a younger member of my family here. Because I believe that spending time with family in nature makes the relationship deeper and more beautiful. My little five-year-old niece is very fond of traveling and loves mountains. She would have enjoyed coming to this place and could enjoy the entire city from the mountains. If I ever go here again, I will try to take her with me.
Also, I would have wanted to take my Steemian friend @arjinarahman here. Because this place is amazing for photography, travel blogging and experiencing nature. I would have told her "If you want to experience the true beauty of nature, if you want to forget all your worries for some time and get lost in the peaceful environment, then you must definitely come to Alu Tila Park."

I am sure that anyone who comes here will fall in love with the beauty of the mountains, green nature and peaceful environment.
