Discover more about Mirpur Beribadh River View point

Mirpur Beribadh, located on the bank of the Turag River in Mirpur, Dhaka, offers a soothing escape from the city's hustle and bustle. This scenic spot is a beloved destination for those seeking a connection with nature and a respite from urban life. The heart of Mirpur Beribadh is its roughly two-kilometer-long footbridge that extends along the riverside. Walking along the footbridge gives visitors the feeling of floating on the water, with the river on one side and lush foliage on the other. The sights around, above, and under create a unique experience. On one side is the river, which becomes progressively enchanting as the sun sets. On the other side, foliage creates a green wall. Historically, the Beribadh, or embankment, played a crucial role in managing the river's flow and protecting the surrounding areas. Constructed in the early 1990s, it separated a large wetland from the Turag River, creating a unique terra-aqueous zone. While the river still offers a scenic view, it's important to be aware of environmental issues and to support efforts to protect and preserve this valuable natural resource.
