Panchagarh is the northernmost district of Bangladesh from which Kanchenjunga can be seen, surrounded on all three sides by a 27 km border wall with India. To its north is the Darjeeling district of India. There is a historical post bungalow in Tetulia Upazila Sadar of Panchagarh. Its construction technique is a lot of Victorian styles. It is known that it was built by the king of Cooch Behar.
The post bungalow is managed by the district council. Besides, Tetulia Upazila Parishad has constructed a picnic spot. Since the two places are located side by side, they are playing a greater role in beautification. The relationship between these two places is like the back and forth of a coin.
Dakbungalows and picnic spots are located on the banks of the river Mahananda, about 15 to 20 meters above the common ground, on a high average near the border of India.
If you stand on the verandah of Dakbanglo, you will see the unobstructed beauty of India-Bangladesh. From there one can enjoy the beauty of Kanchenjunga in autumn and winter. If there is water in the river Mahananda during the rainy season, its view becomes more beautiful. Kanchenjunga can be seen most clearly from the inner city of Panchagarh.
