Sobujbon, a carefully crafted green forest created out of passion

Sobujbon, which means a green forest in English, is totally different from the tourist places you come across. The green resort does not have a charter like other tour spots, like get up in the morning for sunrise, see some places around or do some activities like your predecessor. Forget you’re all routines in Sobujbon, be a mad king of greens for the days you are staying there and do whatever you want. Although you are the king of this green place you have to adhere to one thing, the meal timings, there are no options available to fill in your stomach if you miss the meal times. Alternately, get the food carried to your cottage, especially in night. The dining area is quite large walking distance from the cottages and to maintain the charms of this place room service is not available, barring tea, coffee and cold drinks. You have to reach the Bamboo and wood made dining place by walking every time for the meals.

Exotic Plants, which had been found in this tropical green reserve, are maintained superbly to give you a visual pleasure of the place. 

The eco-friendly resort is made up with only eco-friendly materials. Only little bit of cement and ceramic tiles have been used to make up the toilets only. With no concrete and full of soil to preserve the ecosystem is a noble venture of this resort. Since most of the things are made from the natural resources it poses some threats with its doors and windows – doors and windows scale up and down as per the seasons making it difficult to close it properly.

The entire eco-forest which is spread across 100 acres really need a passion to maintain this man made forest. Mr. Abdus and Mr. Sailen have passion to maintain this beautiful garden. 80% of the area of the resort has plantation and 20% have water bodies.
