Botanical Gardens

Three or four kilometres east of town, next to the Agriculture and Fisheries College, are the large and peaceful botanical gardens. Well laid out, although not particularly well maintained, they make a decent place to relax on a bench with a book. You can also get boats across the river from here. A rickshaw from the town centre costs around Tk 40.
