Even visitors could have a very close look at the simple and
quite laborious life of Rakhaine tribes at their village and also see the lifestyle
and livelihood of fishermen’s colony at Jelepara (fishermen's village) and feel
the beauty of their simple lifestyle.
If the tourists are adventurous enough, then they might try for
going fishing on the fishing boats of the fishermen by convincing them. Such a
fishing trip could be a lifetime experience too.
In the fishing village, tourists could by fresh Hilsha fish
from the fishermen who had just returned from the sea for selling those to
their arot (fish selling centres). There are also some local restaurants where
fresh cooked Hilshas are served for having a delicious and unforgettable taste
of the golden fish.
The tourists can also visit the huge Buddhist statue at the
Buddhist Temple at Misry Para in Kuakata. There are two wells there which were
dug around 200 years ago and locals believe in the healing power of the wells’
water. Local name of the well is Kua and Kata and a combination of which
finally made the place’s name as Kuakata.
Tourists can also collect souvenirs and memorabilia from
Rakhaine market to keep the memory of the great Kuakata trip afreh in mind. Various
handicrafts and other products made of bamboos, wood, brass metals and corals
could be bought from that market along with fabric and colorful dresses.
