After visiting the Raja Ram temple I went to visit the Khalia Peace Center (which is locally known as Shanti Kendra). It is made for the rural people so that they could get some help about agriculture, and also could apply the science over their traditional cultivation techniques.
This is not a traditional tourist place. But it is lovely for the visitors. You could spend your afternoon here. It is a wide and quite big place. Everything is designed and placed nicely (with a touch of nature). There are several gardens inside the Khalia Peace Center. You could easily sit on the green grass for relaxation.
There are several ponds located inside the premises. Also there are several tin shaded small houses where you could sit for a while. Not sure if fishing is allowed in the pond or not. From Tekerhat bus stand it would cost you a 5 Taka van (a three wheel vehicle like rickshaw) fare.
