Traveling has always been a part of our life. By 'our' i mean my family. Traveling to the longest sea beach of world was really amazing. And the best part was, it's in Bangladesh.

As I was saying this is the longest sea beach in the whole world. It is an unbroken 120 km (75 mi) sandy sea beach with a gentle slope. Cox's Bazar is also known by the name Panowa, whose literal translation means "yellow flower." Its other old name was "Palongkee".

As one of the most beautiful and famous tourist spots in Bangladesh, the major source of economy in Cox's Bazar is tourism. Millions of foreigners and Bangladeshi natives visit this city every year. As a result, a large number of hotels, guest houses and motels have been built in the city and coastal region. A few international hotel chains now operate in the city, but others are planning to build hotels here.

People are also involved in fishing and collecting seafood and sea products for their livelihood. Oysters, snails, pearls and their ornaments are very popular with tourists.
