Haltir Beel or Halti Beel is a beel under Naldanga thana, 10 kilometres north of Natore sadar. It is also used as one of the entertainment centres of this region.
As an entertainment centre, the road that runs from Patul to Khajura is the most attractive of all. In the monsoon, when the beel starts filling with water, the beauty of this road keeps growing, and the crowd of tourists keeps growing too.
The small villages lying inside the beel like islands are even more enchanting. The vast area of Piprul, Khajura, Madh Nagar and Brahmapur unions of Natore Sadar upazila is part of Halti Beel. From the month of Boishakh to the month of Kartik the beel area remains submerged in 5 to 8 feet of water. Halti Beel is famous as a breeding ground of natural fish. Halti Beel is connected with the Atrai river. The part of Halti Beel that retains water in winter has been declared a fish sanctuary. Consequently, the fish that are preserved in that sanctuary in winter spread into Halti Beel in the monsoon and, in the breeding season, produce fish in abundance in the natural environment. The big and small local fish produced in this area are extremely delicious. The natural scenery of this area in the monsoon is a delight to the eyes. In the monsoon, for boat trips on Halti Beel, a great crowd of tourists gathers in the Patul-Hapania area.
There is no sea in the northern region, so the seabeach is a dream to the people of this region. But Natore's Halti Beel is now filling much of that lack of the sea for the sea-loving people of this area. The tossing expanse of water and the waves of Halti Beel are enough to cheer anyone's mind in an instant. With endless water in the monsoon and fertile farmland in winter, a road 7 kilometres long was built straight across the middle of this beel in 2004.
Centred on the tourism industry, many shops, hotels and the like have grown up in various places here. Every day thousands of people come to this beel to taste the sea. As soon as you set out on the Patul-Khajura road in front of the beel, your eyes will fall on the signboard written in large letters: 'Patul Mini Cox's Bazar'. Walk a couple of steps along the path, and the tossing expanse of water will catch your eye.
