(BSS) - Located in the remote northeastern hills of Sylhet, Lovachora has a huge tourism potential due to its untouched natural beauty, rich history and flowing river.

Situated near the Kanaighat Upazila, Lovachora lies just a few kilometres from the Indian border, making it one of Bangladesh`s most scenic yet lesser-known travel spots.

Despite its relatively low profile in mainstream tourism, Lovachora is steadily gaining attention from domestic travelers seeking offbeat experiences. Surrounded by rolling hills, tea gardens, crystal-clear streams, and century-old ruins, the region offers a unique blend of adventure and tranquillity.

"Although Lovachora is a beautiful place, a very few tourists visit it...since it is a very hard-to-reach area," Sirajul Islam, a restaurant owner at Molagula Bazar of Lovachora told BSS.

The journey to Lovachora begins from Sylhet city and roughly a three-hour is needed to reach there. First, one must go to Kanaighat bazar by road and then he or she has to ride a boat in going to Lovachora. Around one hour will be needed to reach the spot.

As visitors approach Lovachora, the landscape transforms dramatically. Vast stone beds, freshwater streams, and natural pools bordered by dense forest greet travelers with an almost cinematic view.

The Lovachora River, originating from the Indian hills, flows gracefully through this terrain-offering opportunities for boat rides, swimming, and riverside picnics.

Despite its growing popularity on social media platforms, Lovachora remains largely untapped.

Md Kamal Hossain, a local businessman, emphasised the importance of sustainable travel.

"Lovachora is a gift of nature. We want people to visit, but also to respect the land, the water, and the people who live here," he added.

There are currently no formal tourist facilities in Lovachora, while mobile network coverage is limited in some parts of the region.

Kamal said as withdrawing stones from Lovachora River has been suspended for years, river ecosystem has improved there.
