Perhaps it was month of July 2007. One fine morning I was relaxing and going through the daily news paper. It was a holiday. By hearing the calling bell, I was surprise! Who is there? I was not expecting any one so early.

By the way, at that time I was working for a national training institute in Sylhet. I was alone in the My Bangloo. My family was residing at Dhaka. .

By seeing Mr.Kibria in my Bangloo I was surprise. Kibria is my friend, he work in Chittagong and he is Banker. He told me that he is in Sylhet on official visit. One of his clients is importing some goods from India and he is here to inspect the goods. So he wants to go to Tamabil check post.

After having our breakfast we started for Tamabil at 9.00 am. The road is very nice and wide. I have visited Tamabil several times with my trainee’s and gust but for Kibria it is his first visit.

At 9.30am we reached at Haripur. It is to mention that this is the first gas and oil field of Bangladesh. We had a short visit of the oil field. My friend was very stoniest by seeing fire on the water. In fact there was a big explosion at the time digging. Now the digging place is turn in to a pond and gas is licking there. So if any one put fire there, he can see the fire on the water. Besides Haripur, other places of tourist attraction on way to Tamabil are Jaintipur and Sreepur. Near to Tamabil one can visit Jaflong also.

In the Bangladesh part there are small hills but on the opposite side India posses very big hills full of natural wealth. Before entering c, there is a small road turns right to Sreepur. We took a break at Sreepur. When we travel, we saw small hills around us and in front of us so far eyes go we saw big hills are standing over our head looks like dark cloud. On way to Sreepur there is a tea garden named Sreepur tea state. There is a palm garden in high land of Sreepur and under that there flows a river named the Piyayen. This river falls from two big hills of Meghalay and river flows between these two hills. The small river is very streamy and one to take caution during swimming. The river is full of big quarries and stones. Sreepur is one of the largest stone collection places of Bangladesh. Hundreds of trucks are carrying stones every day from Sreepur.

After having a short break at Sreepur, we started for Tamabil. This part of journey is completely in the hilly area. The roads curve the hills and there are lots of ups and down. In fact, Sylhet is a gift of beauty & nature. This part of Bangladesh is one of the most exquisite wonder spot to visit. On way to Tamabil traveler can also have a glimpse of the waterfalls across the border.

Lastly, we reached Tamabil at 12.00pm. Tamabil is the border outpost on Sylhet- Shilong road, about 55 km away from Sylhet town. Tamabil is on the Bangladesh side and Dahuki on the other side, boarder of Meghalay of eastern province of India. One can easily reach Tamabil by regular bus and Micro bus service from Sylhet. It is just one and half hours journey from Sylhet.

My friend was working with his client. By this border outpost coal, spices, ingredients, and fruits are imported from Meghalay and asam province of India. Tamabil is a heavenly naturally beautiful place in Sylhet. I was enjoying the natural beauty of Tamabil and waterfall across the border. We take some pictures at the no-mans land and meet with some Monipuri and Khasia tribes’ people there.

We enjoyed all the day by observing the natural beauty. Having our lunch at Tamabil, we started for Sylhet at 4 pm having the heavenly scenario of Haripur, Sreepur and Tamabil in our heart.
