At Demra Ghat the boat will halt for a visit to the old Zamindar’s palace was established by the founder of the Murapara Raj family named Ramratan Banerjee. This building was renovated several times, and now a days, it just lost all it’s heritage. The whole palace is converted into a educational institute in that region. There are two large ponds located at the palace premise.

Back to the boat again after half an hour cruising more you may also go for a refreshing swim in the river depending on the temperature and weather condition. During summer it is a nice activity to do swimming in the river so please bring your swimming gear if you have immense interest for swimming.  Enjoy the freshly cooked lunch onboard and watch activities by the riverside. 

On the way back we serve tea, coffee, and french fries once finished the light refreshment we will have a short visit at Nowapar Village, where the Magic fingers are weaving Traditional Jamdani sari.

Back to Demra and you will return to Dhaka, arriving in the late afternoon.
