Another reason why I was eager to visit Tangail was to see the expansive Brahmaputra River. The Brahmaputra (Sanskrit for Brahma's Son) is one of the longest rivers of Asia, and when it joins with the Ganges and Meghna in Bangladesh, the three form the largest delta in the world. Colloquially, the Brahmaputra is known as the Jamuna in Bangladesh. My expectation of an unfathomable river was not met since it was the dry season, and the river was running only 40% of its full flow. Nonetheless, it was a breathtaking vista - blue water, cloudless sky, pure white sand... add that with some great friends... you got yourself an unforgettable experience.
