Located only around 4 kilometers from the central Barishal of the Barishal District and right near the Kirtonkhola River is the Rupatali area. If you check the Rupatali area guide, you will notice that it is part of (partially) 4 different wards, 11, 12, 24, and 25, of Barishal City Corporation. It also happens to be one of the most important areas because it has many important locations, places, and sites.<br><br>
Let’s start with the Rupatali Housing State, which is a well-planned residential area. This part of the area has gone through a significant transformation over the last few years.<br><br>
One of its well-known sights is the Rupatali Housing State Jame Masjid, Rupatoli Shahid Abdur Rab Serniyabad Govt. Secondary School and the playground near it. The school complex has a gigantic 7-storeyed building with a massive playground where various cultural programs and functions are held throughout the year.<br><br>
Though the local roads are suitable for commutes like rickshaws, CNGs, bikes, and small vans, the big roads and highways offer mass transportation. There are several bus terminals on the Barishal-Pirojpur Highway. Other than traveling inside the district, the buses here connect the locality directly to a few districts and locations, such as Dhaka, Pirojpur, Jhalokathi, Kuakata, etc.<br><br>
Since it is one of the important locations in Barishal, buying properties in Rupatali, especially in and around the residential area, is quite expensive. However, finding affordable homes for rent is very convenient. Moreover, there are many shops, bazaars, and several supershops in the area, making daily necessities more accessible.<br><br>
Rupatali also has some notable or popular locations and landmarks, such as Rupatali Gol Chattor, Inspection Bungalow, Shahid Abdur Rab Serniabat Stadium, and the Memorial of
1971 Torture & Genocide. One can also enjoy the view of the Kirtonkhola River while strolling along the walkway or ghat area of the river.
