The Lake of Mystery.

This is the lake of dream, the lake of epic and this is the lake of Dragon. According to the myth this lake is the home of a Dragon. The name of this lake is BOGA LAKE. Local name of this lake is "Bogakain" lake. This is the 2nd highest lake in Bangladesh. Its exact height is 1200 feet above from sea level. Boga lake is situated in Ruma thana of Bandarban district. This lake also situated in the trail to Keokaradong, the 2nd highest peak of Bangladesh(3172feet).

The only to reach Boga lake was by foot, only 1 years back. But there is a road which touches Boga lake. The road is build to destroy the forest (there is not a lot of forest left there now a days). But who love nature they should go to Boga Lake by trekking. The trail is fantastic and it is a 5 hour trail.

Boga Lake is not a very big lake. It is 12acres in size. The water of the lake is crystal clear and under the water there are rocks and boulders all over. The lake is completely surrounded by high hills. There is a small tribal village just at the shore of Boga lake called "Bogalake para". The members of the village are from Bowm tribe and they are Cristian.

Though Boga lake was nearly a unreachable destination even 2 years back from now but now it is the number one attractive place to visit in whole Bangladesh for its beauty and wilderness.
