Kuakata tourist centre
Kuakata.info
The world is blessed with many wonderful places attracting people to see the exquisite beauty of the nature. One such place is Kuakata situated at the end point of Patuakhali district. It is a rare gift that nature has offered us. Though it may not be a singular one but is a rare spot in this planet from where one can enjoy both the views of the sun: sunrise and sunset. Tourists do not have to visit other countries for satisfying their desire of watching sunrise. Now let us see what we are doing to attract tourists. I had the opportunity to visit this place in 1997. I started with an excited mind, but when I reached the place covering 22 kilometres of a narrow road crossing three ferries from Kalapara best known as Khepupara, I found myself totally disappointed as no sign of any edifice like hotel, motel, shopping mall, theatre hall, garden etc, which constitute the integral part of a true tourism centre, was there. The road was in very poor condition. If the road is developed to the international standard and other facilities like five-star hotel, motel, shipping mall, theatre and other likes are built and arrangement are made to let the people of the world know about the existence of such a rare place, I can say with 100% confidence that the money to be spent for all these will be recovered with huge interest.
