The suspension bridge at Meghla is one of the longest of its kind in the Bandarban district.
The complex is situated on the Bandarban-Keranihat highway, making it a primary stop for tourists entering the district.
The landscape architecture utilizes the natural depression between two hills to create the central lake.
The site includes a dedicated cable car system, a rarity in the public parks of the region.
The complex was established by the Bandarban District Administration to promote tourism in the hilly terrain.
Meghla Tourism Complex is a government-managed recreational site located in the hill district of Bandarban. The complex is defined by its artificial lake, which features a prominent suspension bridge as its primary crossing point. Visitors can engage in paddle boating on the lake and utilize a cable car system that traverses the undulating hilly terrain. The area is landscaped with gardens and walkways designed to highlight the natural topography of the Chittagong Hill Tracts. A mini-zoo is integrated within the complex grounds, housing various animal species. It serves as a popular regional destination for picnicking and outdoor leisure. The park infrastructure includes small bridges and viewpoints constructed to provide perspectives of the surrounding forest canopy.
The center of the long suspension bridge provides an unobstructed view of the lake and surrounding hills.
Visit on a weekday to avoid significant crowds that gather during local holidays.
Bring mosquito repellent as the dense vegetation and lake areas attract insects.
Wear comfortable, closed-toe walking shoes due to the hilly terrain and stairs.
Avoid relying on the cable car during peak tourist seasons, as queue times can be excessive; don't feed animals in the mini-zoo.
Maintain a modest dress code in line with local cultural norms; do not litter in the lake or park areas.
