Maintained by the Khagrachhari Hill District Council, this 22-acre landscaped park sits on low rolling hillocks just north of the town centre. Its main landmark is a bright suspension bridge spanning an artificial reservoir, flanked by walking trails, fruit orchards, and open grassy slopes. Families gather in the late afternoon for paddle-boat rides across the water and views over the surrounding pine and bamboo groves. Small pavilions offer shaded seating, making it an easy spot to unwind before evening.
