On the outskirts of Mirpur, the National Botanical Garden is a wonderful destination for nature lovers. The spectacular garden was established on 208 acres of land in 1962. With slightly elevated lands, the garden has an amazing number of 70,000 trees of 1000 species. Nature lovers can enjoy and explore many things there: a lake, a rose garden, different species of bamboo and a number of ponds.

The Deputy Conservator of Forest Sayedur Rahman says the Botanical Garden has a library with research facility for plant lovers and researchers. He also adds, "All kinds of people come here—old and young. But we get a lot of students and teachers of Botany for study purpose."     

Few years back botanical garden was in the headlines as unsocial elements had strong presence there. However the situation has changed. The garden authority has put fences and strengthened its security system.

So get your relief today from this concrete city and visit Mirpur National Botanical Garden.
