It is 264 km away east of Dhaka, renowned for its hilly landscape, natural beauty and for the seashore. Chittagong is also known of the town of Aulias (Muslim saints).

Its green hills and forests, its broad sandy beaches and its fine cool climate always attract the sightseers from all over the world. Described by the Chinese traveller poet, Huen Tsang (7th century A.D) as "a sleeping beauty emerging from mists and water" and given the title of "Porto Grande" by the 16th century Portuguese seafarers.
