Just north of Chittagong city is a hilly area, some of it turned public parkland. This is a good place to go for a brisk walk and a breather. Part of the park is an amusement park with stalls with games for the children, lotteries and things like that you find in a tivoli. Further in you hit a lake and undulating walking trails. Very nice for a change.
Equipment: Sports shoes, just for trail and gravel walking.

The main problem would probably be reliable maps.
Equipment: Bring a sturdy mountain bike.

Equipment: You will need water, a muddy rice field, a soggy football and team players....
