Discover The World Biggest Mangrove Forest Sundarban. Part 03 [22:32]
The Sundarbans (Bengali: সুন্দরবন, Shundorbôn) is the largest single block of tidal halophytic mangrove forest in the world. The name Sundarban can be literally translated as "beautiful jungle" or "beautiful forest" in the Bengali language (Shundor, "beautiful" and bon, "forest" or "jungle"). The name may have been derived from the Sundari trees that are found in Sundarbans in large numbers. Alternatively, it has been proposed that the name is a corruption of Samudraban (Bengali: সমুদ্রবন Shomudrobôn "Sea Forest") or Chandra-bandhe (name of a primitive tribe). But the generally accepted view is the one associated with Sundari trees.[1] The forest lies in the vast delta on the Bay of Bengal formed by the super confluence of the Padma, Brahmaputra and Meghna rivers across Saiyan southern Bangladesh. The seasonally-flooded Sundarbans freshwater swamp forests lie inland from the mangrove forests on the coastal fringe. The forest covers 10000 sq.km. of which about 6000 are in Bangladesh. It became inscribed as a UNESCO world heritage site in 1997. The Sundarbans is estimated to be about 4110 km², of which about 1700 km² is occupied by waterbodies in the forms of river, canals and creeks of width varying from a few meters to several kilometers. The Sundarbans is intersected by a complex network of tidal waterways, mudflats and small islands of salt-tolerant mangrove forests. The interconnected network of waterways makes almost every corner of the forest ...

Beautiful Bangladesh! School of life... [10:07]
Bangladesh - a small country of superlatives... Bangladesh is a young and small, an "undiscovered" country with the highest population density worldwide, from tourism spared country full of contrasts, superlatives and variety, the probably most notable feature of Bangladesh... The immense rivers Padma, Meghna and Jamuna with her countless tributaries dominate the environment, form a huge traffic network and unite to the biggest delta worldwide, picturesque tea gardens in the highland, surrounded by impenetrable jungle, the most lonesome coasts and the longest beach of the world. In Dhaka, the fastest growing metropolis of Asia by rickshaw in the blustering traffic to the biggest river port of the world, Sadarghat. Important, millenniums old archaeological excavation sites, Buddhist cloisters and Hindu temple towns. A unique population in flora and fauna waits for you. If nature or culture, whether in the Sundarbans, on the traces of the Royal Bengal Tiger or in the hills of Chittagong to guest with ethnic minorities -- Bangladesh offers great in every kind, I think unique. Incredibly, like the people.
