Places of interest
- Hazrat Shah Sultan Kamar Uddin Rumi's shrine is situated in Madanpur, a village 8 km from the district town.
- Durgapur, near the Indo-Bangla border, is a good tourist spot. The Garo Pahar is situated there and people observe time-honored traditions. People living in Netrakona's mountains are the ancestors of the Upo Jatis. The only Up-Zati cultural academi in the country is there. Khaliyajuri is a place dominated by waterways; the small villages are organised into "islands" and radio communications are poor.
