Faujdarhat is a neighborhood of Chittagong City in Bangladesh. It is well known as a ship breaking area, with one of the largest breaking yards in the world: Chittagong Ship Breaking Yard. There are several institutions including Faujdarhat Cadet College, the first cadet college in Bangladesh.^[1]

In 1995, the Forest Department created a 5 square kilometres (1.9 sq mi) mangrove forest park that stretches from Faujdarhat to South Kattali in Chittagong.^[2] The area experienced a major oil spill when an oil-laden train derailed on 9 July 2014.^[3]

The beach in the area is used to demolish ships. At 15 square kilometres (5.8 sq mi) in length, it is the longest ship breaking site in the world. Around 200,000 people work there and the industry contributes a lot to the Bangladesh economy.^{[citation needed]}
