Teknaf is the southern-most city on the mainland in Bangladesh, on the narrow strip running along the coast of Myanmar. It's a dusty featureless frontier town - this is remote Bangladesh and it feels like it. Electricity can be scarce, so having a flashlight for the dark evenings is wise.

Among the many legendary love stories in Bangladesh, the tale of Mathin, a tribal princess, is very famous. It is a part of history of the coastal city Teknaf, the last town in the southern most part of Bangladesh.
Teknaf is a nearby city of Mayanmer (the arakan). It is an old city, originated back in the middle of early twenteeth century. It was habitated by the tribal community called rakhaine. The tale of Mathine involves this community and one of the police force member of ruling english people at that time.
