Khagrachhari: Richhang Jhorna (waterfall)






Richhang...its a name of a beautiful waterfall in Bangladesh situated at Matiranga Upazilla in Khagrachhari district. Although from the remote past this waterfall had meet the thirst of travel the district administration take the site in concern from 2003. From Richhang bus stop beside the Dhaka-Khagrachhari highway the waterfall is 2 km away. The road is made up of brick and there is no single transport facility, so everyone have to pass it on foot.
Govt. information says that the fall is about 30 meter in hight. There is a slope naturally made up of stone in which people used to slide down into the standing water. But this may cause injury. The surrounding hill side area is awesome. It's a nice place for photography also.
Richhang shows its full beauty in rainy season.

How to go?
From Dhaka there are 4 direct coach services named Saudia, S.Alam, Shanti and Dolphine. But personally I suggest to go with Saudia or S.Alam.
Ticket cost 300 tk/person
Night journey is available from Dhaka
From Khagrachhari the last bus is at 2:30 pm. Anyone can book a ticket from Alutila or Richhang through phone.
