#Madras_Coffee_House

Madras Coffee House is a very popular hotel in Jamalpur especially among the tourists. This was initially a tiny shop selling sweet meats which was about half a century old. Now, with a view to cater the culinary needs of the south India people, the Madras Coffee House is very famous. This place even though famous does not have much to describe about. It is almost like a restaurant with small accommodation for not more than two people and a tiny telephone booth.

#Pir_Baba

This name of the city of Jamalpur comes from Pir Jamaluddin as his grave lies at this place and it is considered as an honor to pay an obeisance at this holy place on Golf Road, especially on Fridays.

#Death_Valley

Death Valley is named so for a couple of reasons. Firstly, because of its formerly dense jungle frequented by many dangerous animals and secondly it is known that a group of soldiers had disappeared in that area long before. There was no trace of any of the soldiers. Apart from that the nature around this place is very beautiful. It is also said that ‘Baba’ spent most of his time in that particular place especially under the Tamarind Tree. This place would be like heaven for spiritual practitioners for some peaceful meditation.
