Ratargul Swamp Forest The Meghalaya river pours into the Gowain, and a narrow stream flows through the Chengi canal to flood the entire region of Ratargul — not only the only freshwater swamp in the country, but also among very few in the entire world. As the small boats move through the snaking waterways canopied by the lush foliage, often spreading as high as 15 metres, many feel, and some for the first time, that we are indeed part of nature; the environment around us. Ratargul has the distinguished feature of supporting a diverse ecosystem of flora and fauna. Its area is 3, 325.61 acre including 504 acre declared as the animal sanctuary in 2015. This only swamp forest in Bangladesh is located 26 kilometres (16 mi) far from Sylhet. Main trees of this forest are zigzag style Koroch and Hizal tree. The root of these trees are on two levels. Monsoon is the right time to see Ratargul. Ratargul radiates the unmatched beauty that draws the large crowd from distant places.
