About

Shah Amanat Bridge, the second bridge constructed across the Karnaphuli River in Bangladesh, is the first major extradosed bridge in the country. It is located along the country's busiest national highway, N1. It connects the southern parts of Chittagong, Cox's Bazar, and the hilly district of Bandarban. It is named after Chittagong's 18th-century Islamic Saint Shah Amanat.
