It is located 150 km south of Chittagong. Cox’s Bazar is also known by the name “Panowa”, the literal translation of which means “yellow flower”. Its other old name was “Palongkee”.

Often termed as the "World's longest beach", Cox's Bazar is yet to become a major tourist destination in Asia allegedly due to lack of publicity.
The history of Cox's Bazar begins in the Mughal period. On his way to Arakan, when the Mughal Prince Shah Shuja passed through the hilly terrain of the present day Cox’s Bazar, he was attracted to the scenic and captivating beauty of the region. He commanded his forces to camp there. A place named Dulahazara, meaning "one thousand palanquins", still exists in the area. After the Mughals, the place came under the control of the Tipras and the Arakanese, followed by the Portuguese and then the British. The name Cox's Bazar/Bazaar derived from the name of Captain James Cox of the East India, who was in charge of the naval base during 1800 AD, even though he died in 1798 as noted above in this very article. In 1854, Cox's Bazar was made a subdivisional headquarters.
