Our journey to Sylhet, about 200 kilometers northeast of the capital of Bangladesh, starts in one of the train stations of Dhaka. Dhaka is crossed by 2 rivers, the Daleshwari and the Buriganga, whose depth also allows ocean-going vessels to call at the ports of Dhaka. .... Sylhet is a very busy town and watching the traffic on the main road is a spectacle..... Sri Mangal is 200 kilometres away from Dhaka. Here are the sad remains of the former primary jungle of Bangladesh. ...... We leave Sylhet in the darkness of the night to visit the last place of this scarcely visited region. We drive to Jaflong, about 70 kilometers north of Sylhet, on the border to the Indian state of Meghalaya, where our journey ends.
