A place with the largest single block of tidal halophytic mangrove forest in the world

The Sundarbans are the world's biggest isolated area of tidal halophytic mangrove forest. The Sundarbans, a collection of low-lying islands in the Bay of Bengal that are dispersed throughout Bangladesh and India, are renowned for their distinctive mangrove forests. With a size of around 40,000 sq km, this dynamic delta region is one of the biggest in the entire globe.

The vast river delta on the Bay of Bengal is a natural area in southern Bangladesh and the far southernmost region of the Indian state of West Bengal. A portion of Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal are included in the Sunderbans, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The remaining one-third of the Sundarbans lies in West Bengal, India, with two-thirds of it located in Bangladesh. In the Sundarbans delta in the Indian state of West Bengal, there is a National Park, Tiger Reserve, and Biosphere Reserve called the Sundarbans National Park. Three protected forests in Bangladesh are the Sundarbans South, East, and West. One of the biggest Bengal tiger sanctuaries, this area is heavily covered in mangrove forests.
