A little while ago it was sunny. It's freezing cold now. The freezing cold makes us shiver. The five of us in light clothes to warm the gaan sat around the gaan and looked at the distant sky. In the evening, the lights of Jyotsana are playing on the hills. But all our eyes are on Kanighat, when the boat will reach the shore.
Everyone can clearly see the clouds gathering in the distant mountains.
We are walking in the middle of tea gardens on the high and low hilly slippery road, there is no boat, moreover CNG is not available on this road now, so we have to walk a lot. After walking for about 2 hours, we reached Surighat-Chatul-Darvast and came to Sylhet in the evening.
A day spent close to nature outside the walls was wonderful.
In Kanighat upazila of Sylhet, there are many sandy clear water rivers at the foot of Khasia-Jainta hills in the northeastern border area of Bangladesh. One of them is Lobachhara river. Hearing the name Lobhachhara is like falling in love. At the beginning of winter, I left Sylhet at seven in the morning to visit Lovachara. Companions are Nabeel, Rakib, Abir and Najib.
Take a local bus from Sobhanighat point in Sylhet city and go to Kanaighat first From there our vehicle will be boat.
I was walking through the clean Surma river. The mouth of Lova is the confluence of Surma and Lovachhara rivers. Our motor boat runs through the Surma River towards the Lobhachhara River. There are no crowded boats on the river. One or two engine-driven boats are suddenly moving away. Sunbeams on distant mountains. All this is like a trip to a foreign country. At the end of the river, a short walk leads to Lobhachara's hanging bridge. At first sight, everyone will think of Jaflong's bridge. I thought so too. But the pleasant, noise-free scene there was truly remarkable. As a day tour, this lure can be the best option for you. And to get enthralled, it is impossible to turn your eyes away from the beautiful scenery you will see at Nayaka. The green and clear water of the mountains will make anyone a nature lover in no time. And the hand camera will capture the memories and surely suffer from nostalgia later on.
How to go and cost:
Basically it is a day tour He came to Sylhet from any part of the country in the vehicle of his choice. Be sure to leave at night and try to reach early morning.

Or board any bus going to Jaflong and first get down at a place called Dharvast. From Dharvast take bus/ Laguna to Kanaighat. Direct Kanighat bus fare will cost 60 taka If you board the bus going to Jaflong and get off at Dharvast, the fare will be 33 taka. Bus fare from Dharvast to Kanighat is Tk 20, Laguna Tk 30.
