It is 'Cheragi Hill' the picture was taken by my mobile-Sony Ericson K800 in a cloudy day.
It was said that once upon a time 'Chittagong' was a dense hilly forest where lives the 'MOGH' s (The original tribe to whom Chittagong belongs, their king was the ruler of ancient Chittagong) and genie. Then one day a messenger Of 'Allah' (the GOD in Islam) 'Hazrat Badar Shah Pati' came to the place and asked the king of the genie to allow him a place to say his prayer to 'Allah'. The Genie king got angry and denied then Badar Shah requested him to consider the case again as he only need a place as big as a 'Cherag' ( A type of light that is shown in the movie 'Aladin' to call out the genie) can light. The genie king then relaxed and allowed him to light his 'Cherag'. Then Badar Shah light his 'Cherag' on this place, showed in the picture. The genies and ghosts then escaped as they can't live in light and the light hence explored the modern chittagong from this place. This place is called 'Cheragi Hill' (The word 'Cheragi came from the word 'Cherag').
