Water Museum:
 
The first water museum (Pani Jadughor) has been established near the Kuakata beach in Kalapara in Patuakhali with the aim of making policy-makers more active in protecting rivers and water resources and raising public awareness. This water museum is located in a two-storeyed building on the Pachimara Bazaar adjacent to the Kalapara-Kuakata road. In collaboration with BUET, various works have been done, including the design of the museum. Its construction is sponsored by the private company Action Aid Bangladesh.
 
Information about the names of rivers of this country, pictures of lost rivers and current rivers, information about the future of rivers can be found in the Water Museum. Padma, Meghna, Jamuna, Buriganga, Andamanik are kept here. There are plans for keeping three international common river water samples with Bangladesh in the future. In addition, there are watches, pottery made in the museum. The bronze items that were once in the house were also found here. There are fishing nets, tea and various materials.
 
There is a boat in front of the water museum. Dip it in half sand. It symbolizes the story of the river dying. Now the lives of the people of the river are also drying up. This is illustrated by a boat stuck in the sand. At the base of the boat are two gorges, which symbolize the river's attempt to kill this country.
