It is located in the main town of Madaripur District. Most of the major districts are established around a river. Madaripur is not alike from those. This simple but beautiful district is found around the river "Arial Khan". Both of the banks are slapped by the almost overflowing water from the river. This river meandered the district all around and where ever you visit the district, you'll find the river or a branch of the river.
"Arial Khan" is originated from the River Padma, and flowed through several southern districts from Bangladesh. After crossing Ferry from "Mawa" you have to cross the "Arial Khan" Bridge to connect with southern portion of the country. Also, just near from the district Madaripur, there is a Ferry over "Arial Khan" to connect with another district Sariatpur.

Balashi Ghat (বালাসী ঘাট) is one of the most beautiful tourist spots of Gaibandha District.It stands beside the bank of Jamuna River and is not very far from Gaibandha Sadar Upazila. At the beginning of 2004, steamers were banned from this place. Although, trawlers & boats are available for traveling. It has built a connection with the southern districts of Jamalpur.
As a result of erosion, everyday many parts of this Ghat are drowning under the river. A huge crowd comes to Balashi Ghat to enjoy its stunning natural beauty.

The Buriganga River (বুড়িগঙ্গা), previously known as "Old Ganges", flows past the southwest outskirts of Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh. Its average depth is 7.6 meters (25 ft.) and its maximum depth is 18 meters (58 ft.). In the distant past, a course of the Ganges River used to reach the Bay of Bengal through the Dhaleswari River.
When this course gradually shifted and ultimately lost its link with the main channel of the Ganges it was renamed the Buriganga. It is said that the water levels during high and very high tides in this river astonished the Mughals. In the 20th century the water table and river became polluted by polythene and other hazardous substances from demolished buildings near the river banks.
