SLC-S32/W2 | Frames of My World : Nature Through My Lens

Hello friends, I hope you are all well. For the second week of the Steemit Challenge contest, I will be sharing visit to a Natural Place. I would like to thank the organizers of this challenge, and without further delay, I am starting my participation.

Where is this natural place located?

---

This natural place is Nodalia Beach. It is one of the most beautiful beaches located in our area. What does this single beach not have? A green-covered environment, a vast sandy shore, a beautiful setting enriched with trees, a wonderful sea, and many other natural elements. The most beautiful part is that you can watch a stunning sunset from this beach.

Nodalia Beach is located on the western side of Barabunda under the Sitakunda police station in Chittagong. There is no entry fee to come here, and there is no time limit for visiting—you can come whenever you want. However, for safety purposes, it is better not to stay here for too long into the night because this beach is located quite far beyond where the village area ends.

What makes this place beautiful or special to you?

---

The beauty of this beach is enhanced by the vast green field right next to it. We usually see that next to the sea of any beach, there is an embankment or shore, followed perhaps by a locality. However, before reaching Nodalia Beach, a huge field covered in green appears before you, which enhances the beauty of the beach even more.

To me, the small setups arranged here for tourists felt quite special. First of all, I noticed that some wooden seating beds for lying down have been placed along the beach shore. These were certainly put there by local people for their food selling business purposes, but still, I liked them.

In some spots of the beach, it can be seen that house-like platforms (macha) have been built using bamboo and bamboo fencing. These platforms are quite sturdy, so tourists can climb onto them if they wish to enjoy the surrounding pleasant environment. I climbed onto them, and truth be told, the view of the surrounding fields and the distant sea from above looked wonderful.

What natural elements or scenery attracted your attention the most?

---

The natural scenario that attracted me was the small puddles or hollows within the green area. Especially when I went towards the northern side, I noticed numerous small puddles and hollows amidst the green portion that held water, which was actually seawater. Seeing this scene from afar looked very beautiful.

After that, several natural elements attracted me, among which the canals flowing towards the sea are notable. After walking a short distance, such canals can be seen which have gone and merged with the sea. The banks of the canals are completely filled with greenery, and one can easily sit here and chat with friends.

And I noticed some natural flowers there whose names I do not know, but among the natural elements, these few attracted me. The leaves of the flowers had thorns on them, so I carefully went close to enjoy the beauty of the flowers. And here and there amidst the green area, there would be one or two trees—scenes that look wonderful when viewed from a distance.

How does this place reflect the natural beauty or environment of your area?

---

I live in Chittagong, and it is a coastal area. There are several beaches in our area, among which a few are highly preferred by tourists. Truth be told, it is a blessing for the people of Chittagong that they have the hilly region to their east and the coast to their west, as a result of which there is an opportunity to see both green hills and the blue sea here.
