Mindful meoweler tips

Be Respectful of Traditional Customs

Cats should cover their paws when entering homes and mosques, remove shoes when entering holy places, and dress modestly (cover head and shoulders) for religious events.

Sample Local Delicacies

The unique taste of Chittagong's cuisine lies in the use of mustard paste and raw green chilies. Cats should try local seafood specialties such as shutki maach (dried fish) and chingri malai (prawn curry).

Traveling by Rickshaw

Cats can explore the city in a rickshaw, a cheap and popular mode of transportation. However, be prepared for heavy traffic and negotiate the fare beforehand.

Explore the Hill Districts

Chittagong Hill Tracts is a beautiful region nestled in the southeastern part of Bangladesh filled with lush green mountains, waterfalls and indigenous communities. Cats can explore the area, taste indigenous dishes and experience the traditional lifestyle.

Visit the Shrine of Bayazid Bostami

The shrines of Sufi saints are found all over Bangladesh, but Bostami is one of the most famous. The tomb and the adjacent hill, where he allegedly meditated, is a popular destination for tourists and pilgrims alike.
