History of Cox's Bazar Beach:

Every place has a history behind its name. The history of Cox's Bazar beach is known to have been disturbed in 1898 in the Arakan region of Burma (Myanmar). As a result, the Bengalis were expelled from there. These exiled Bengalis took refuge in present-day Cox's Bazar, Ukhia, Gundam, and other areas. At that time Captain Cox, an ambassador of the East India Company, was working at the royal court of Burma. He rushed to Cox's Bazar to supervise and distribute relief goods to the refugees under the direction of the company. At that time the whole area was full of mosquitoes and forests. The lack of clean water made people uninhabitable. Captain Cox felt uncomfortable in such an environment but did not leave the refugees. Rather he continues to work for them. At that time the name of this seashore was 'Falking'. Captain Cox finally died here in 1802 and the place was named Cox's Bazar after him.
