There are lots of marvelous natural and man-made objects to enjoy near the bank of Karnafuli River in the port city Chittagong. If you visit the Karnafuli River, there is a restaurant called Zoom, just beside the Chittagong-Kaptai road. This restaurant is monitored and managed by BDR. It’s a nice picnic spot. A lot of students from Rangamati go there as a study tour.
From the spot, you can enjoy the panoramic view over the river Karnafuli. This river is flowing nicely, always full with water, whether its dry season or rainy. Both side of the river has small Mountains, and which is rich with various kinds of deciduous trees. If you visit there in the dry season, you may find most of the trees having no leaves. Its different kinds of beauty. No sign of life, but it’s still wonderful to enjoy.
There are several boats at the river, you can have a boat ride using them. Those are a bit costly, but you know you have to spend some money when you want to enjoy that kind of such beauty.

টাঙ্গুয়ার হাওড়ের কাছে একটি শান্ত নদী হল বওলাই নদী। ভারতের মেঘালয় পাহাড় থেকে উৎপত্তি হওয়া এ নদীর দুইতীরেই কিছু সুদৃশ্য গাছ রয়েছে যেগুলো পানির নীচেই বেঁচে থাকতে সক্ষম। টাঙ্গুয়ার হাওড় দিয়ে প্রবাহিত হয়ে এই নদীটি সুরমা নদীতে মিলিত হয়েছে। শীতকালে এই নদী অতিক্রম করেই আপনাকে টাঙ্গুয়ার হাওড়ে যেতে হবে। শীতকালে এখানে নানা প্রজাতির পাখি দেখতে পাওয়া যায় যেমনঃ সাদাবক, পানকৌরি, গাংচিল, মাছরাঙ্গা ইত্যাদি। স্থানীয়দের জন্য এই নদীটি পরিবহনের একমাত্র মাধ্যম। কখনো কখনো এ নদীর ২-৩ মাইল এলাকায় কোন জনমানব দেখতে পাওয়া যায় না।

Madhumati River, distributary of the upper Padma River (Ganges [Ganga] River), flowing through southwestern Bangladesh. It leaves the Padma just north of Kushtia and flows 190 miles (306 km) southeast before turning south across the swampy Sundarbans region to empty into the Bay of Bengal. In its upper course it is called the Gorai; in its lower course it is known as the Baleswar; and its estuary mouth, which is some 9 miles (14 km) wide, is called the Haringhata. The Madhumati is one of the largest of the Padma distributaries in the southern part of the Gangetic Plain.

একাধিক জেলা দিয়ে প্রবাহিত বাংলাদেশের চমৎকার এই নদীটির পানির রঙ সবুজ। বাংলাদেশের অন্যতম ছোট জেলা মাগুরা দিয়েও এই নদীটি প্রবাহিত হয়েছে। মধুমতি নদীটি বাংলাদেশের অন্যান্য নদীগুলোর মতো কারন বর্ষা মৌসুমের শুরুতে এই নদীটি যথেষ্ট প্রসারিত থাকে যা কিনা বর্ষা মৌসুমের শেষে আরও বেড়ে যায়। নদীর একপাড় থেকে অন্য পাড়ে মানুষকে পাড় করার জন্যে একটি খেয়া ঘাট আছে। এই নদীতে ট্রলারের মত ভারি নৌযান চলাচল না করায় নদীটির পানি তেল দিয়ে দুষিত হয়নি।
অন্যান্য নদীর তীরের চেয়ে এই নদীর তীরে অবস্থিত রাস্তাটি বেশ উঁচু। এছাড়া এখানে অবস্থিত একটি বটগাছ আছে যেটির ছায়াতলে ক্লান্ত পথিক, রিকশাচালকরা বিশ্রাম নিয়ে থাকেন।
