Back from Cox's Bazar: Cox's Bazar, the longest beach, has seen an overcrowding of tourists during the holidays. Recently, along with the improvement of the ongoing political instability in the country, tourists have also started coming to the Cox's Bazar area due to the low flow of cold. Besides, in the first phase of the year, as there was no pressure of education in the educational institutions, the family members rushed to the beach of Cox's Bazar with their sons and daughters.

If you don't come here and take a bath in the sea water, you can't get the fullness of seeing the beach. Some ride the floating ride on the sea water and roam around in the water for the joy of their hearts. Not only that, from teachers and students of different educational institutions to different companies and friends are running in groups.

Suddenly, the hotels and motels around the beach are full of tourists. Although they say that the business condition of the hotel was very initial even a few days ago. Businessmen blamed the country's political violence and cold weather as the reason. At that time the tourist arrival was very less. But now the beach area has become busy due to the increase in the number of tourists. Besides, the businessmen here also said that earlier hijras, street children, robbers and some businessmen used to take excess price from tourists in the hope of high profits. That is not the case now.

A factory worker named Liakat Hossain came to visit Cox's Bazar. He worked in Chattogram TSP fertilizer factory. His country house is in Palash of Narsingdi. He came to Cox's Bazar with his wife, three daughters and their husbands and sons for a week's vacation. The eldest daughter and her husband live in Italy.
