A landmark in southern Bhola

Town lights. Far-reaching views.

Jakob Tower stands in Char Fasson town, around 70 kilometres from Bhola city. The 225-foot observation tower was created as a viewpoint over the surrounding town, waterways, green chars and the coastal landscape beyond.

It works well as the centre of a short Bhola break or as the first stop on a longer journey towards Char Kukri Mukri. Access, entry arrangements and viewing conditions can change, so we confirm the current local details before travel.
