Cox's Bazar
Cox's Bazar is a small town located on the southeast edge of Bangladesh, near a narrow strip of land sandwiches between the Indian Ocean and Myanmar (Burma). The town itself is quite ugly and very crowded. The beach is only OK, despite the claim to be the world's longest and broadest. The problem is that local people are not accustomed to foreigners and it is virtually impassible to be left alone or not offended.
Ramu
Ramu is a village located 14 km east of Cox's Bazar and fomous for its wooden Budhist temples (khyangs) and monasteries built in Burmese style.
