Banglabandha Zero Point is the top most northern part of Bangladesh. Banglabandha is also a major inland port in Northern Bangladesh, established to provide a trade link between India, Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh.
Banglabandha Zero Point becomes a convenient gateway for tourists of India, Nepal and Bhutan. The inland port, which started immigration services in February 2016, offers tourists near hassle-free exit and entry to Phulbari land port in Jalpaiguri of West Bengal.
The export and import of goods through Banglabandha port started in 1997 and full trade services began in January 2011. The immigration service is new and service seekers get formalities done in a very short time—but many are uninformed about this.
The border crossing was meant to reduce the amount of time it took to travel from Rangpur and Dinajpur to the: Jalpaiguri, Cooch Bihar, Darjeeling, and Dinajpur districts of northern West Bengal— as well as Sikkim and Assam.
Banglabandha is very close to Shiliguri—which is the gateway to the North East of India, Nepal, and Bhutan. “From here: India’s Siliguri is only eight kilometers away, Jalpaiguri 10km, Darjeeling 58km, Nepal’s Kakorvita 58km, Bhutan’s border 130km and China’s Nathula is 200km away.”
Tourists who want to travel to: Kolkata, Chennai, New Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, can also use the Banglabandha land port. Connections to Siliguri’s airport are also developed.
Bagdogra Airport in Darjeeling district, in northern West Bengal, which is nine kilometers west of Siliguri, is also a gateway to the hill stations of Kurseong and Kalimpong—and other portions of the North Bengal region of Sikkim. Every year thousands of tourists use the airport.
It has flights to: Delhi, Kolkata, Guwahati, Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, Ranchi, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Bangkok, Paro and Imphal.
That airport also has helicopter flights to Sikkim’s capital Gangtok.
At Banglabandha there is no place to stay at night, and there are no standard restaurant facilities. “This is a big problem. In Tetulia have some guest houses but those are not meant for the public. Investors from the private sector should come forward to construct hotels and restaurants,”
