Aerial View Of Tanguar Haor

An aerial view shows a small village surrounded by the monsoon waters of Tanguar Haor in Tahirpur, Sunamganj, Bangladesh, on July 3, 2026. During the rainy season, rising floodwaters isolate settlements, leaving boats as the primary means of transportation for residents. Tanguar Haor, a Ramsar-designated wetland near the Bangladesh-India border, supports thousands of people through fishing, agriculture, and seasonal tourism while serving as one of the country's most important freshwater ecosystems and a vital habitat for migratory birds.
