Dighinala Bon Bihar – Khagrachari

Dighinala Bon Bihar is a place for the Buddhist people. In my personal opinion, the Buddhist religion is the world’s most peaceful religion. These people are always calm and quiet, and so are their religious temples. This place was free from any crowds. Most of the people inside there were talking in a low voice (or I should say modest).

It was another bright and sunny day, and somewhere between 10:00-11:00am of the day. Our main objective was to visit the Sajek valley. And this beautiful serene place was on our way. So we decided to have a pause in this place for a few minutes. This Bon Bihar is just before entering the Dighinala town (if you are coming from Khagrachari).

After entering inside the main premise through the gate, we found two temples there. One was having a large statue of the Buddha. And the other one was having two statues (local people say this as the statue of Bhante of Rangamati Bihar, and who died recently). In between the two temples there is a small field like place available which is shaded by a medium sized tree. We have enjoyed our staying for a while under that tree.
