monk at ranu, near cox's bazaar Unfortunantly, we weren't allowed to visit the Chittagong Hill Tracts, due to violence there, butwe did make a few side trips out of Cox's Bazaar, including one to Ranu to see a small Buddhist monastery. It was interesting, and very tranquil, inside the temple. The buildings were all multi-roofed, kind of like a pagoda, giving more protection from the sun and a gap at the top, where the hotter air inside can escape.
