Once a major world exporter, Bangladesh is now a net importer of tea.The rise of the Bangladeshi middle class has increasingly driven the industry to focus on a lucrative domestic market. The sector is today dominated by Bangladeshi conglomerates, including M. M. Ispahani Limited, Kazi & Kazi, the Transcom Group, James Finlay Bangladesh, the Orion Group, the Abul Khair Group and Duncan Brothers Bangladesh Limited.
In 2012, Bangladesh recorded its highest production of tea, at 63.85 million kilograms. The country has over 56,846 hectares of land under tea cultivation, up from 28,734 hectares in 1947. The government has begun to promote small-scale tea growers, particularly in the Chittagong Hill Tracts.
The price of Bangladesh tea is determined at the public auction in Chittagong. In March 2015, the international price of Bangladesh tea was US$2.40.
I am Wondering and seeing the beautiful nature. Just awesome.
Excellent garden
Widely pronounce brand name of tea " Isphani Mirzapur Tea". So all guys understand the natural beauty of this garden.
Srimangal is the tea capital of Bangladesh, located in the north-eastern part of the country. You’ll find lush green tea gardens anywhere you go here. This is one of the few places in the country where if you look around, you may not find any other people anywhere except you. A really nice and calm place. Cycling through the trails inside the tea plantations here could be one of the best thing you can do in Bangladesh. Also worth visiting is the Lawachhara National Park, and trek to Hamham waterfalls. You can easily spend few days here with the nature. Srimangal comes as number three on our list of the best places to visit in Bangladesh.

There are so many tea estates that it's not easy to determine which are the best for visiting. Some are more receptive to visitors than others.
One of the most frequently visited estates is Madabpore Tea Gardens. It has a lake on the premises that hasn't been treated with the respect that its scenic potential deserves, but is pleasant nonetheless. The turn-off for the gardens is about 1.75 km beyond the tea Resort compound.
The sprawling Finlays estate is reportedly not so hospitable. Politely pleading ignorance and leaving should be enough to deal with estate managers.
Sadly, tea-estate managers aren't overly interested in providing accommodation for travelers, though one suspects that the first to do won't be the last. However, all estates have guesthouse facilities for friends, family and visiting VIPs; given Bangladeshi hospitality you may be lucky enough to be considered within one, if not all, categories.
good to house
