Barshijora Eco Park is located in Moulvibazar Sadar, 2 km from the Zila Sadar. This eco park is also an attempt to conserve our precious nature. It is not yet that much developed as other eco parks. When you are in the town and have a little time with nothing to do at all, this might be the place you may make a short visit to.

Barshijora Eco Park was established on 887 acres of reserve forest near Moulvibazar town in 2006. The forest was declared reserve in 1916. Many timber and medicinal plants were planted there later. Two eco-cottages, four picnic spots, two observation towers, security posts, five public toilets and power supply line are there. The Eco Park also has many common species of fauna.

The main reason behind building the park is to gather the general people of the locality for entertainment in various occasions. Also, because of not having available children playground, this was built to enhance their childhood, although people of all ages gather here every day.

Throughout the park, there are lots of seating arrangements. Usually every afternoon, people come here with their friends and family members to enjoy their leisure time. Also in any occasions, this park is being decorated for enlarging the tourist attraction.
