 The most beautiful environment I have ever seen. Yala. (I use Google Translate because my knowledge of English is very limited. Point out any errors. Thank you.)      I lost my job for a while because of the corona condition. During that time I was looking for a job to find the money I needed. Eventually a friend of mine and I got to go for a little job. It was in the days when I did that job that I saw the beauty of this environment. This area is called Yala. It is one of the most beautiful places in the Southern Province of Sri Lanka. Yala Cinnamon Wild Hotel is here. The hotel is located in the middle of the Yala jungle. The Yala beach is very close by. I was staying at this hotel.      In the morning we woke up to the sound of something falling on the roof of our room. When we searched, we saw a large herd of monkeys on the roof. They were very free. They seemed familiar to people. So even though we were there, we saw their natural behavior.      From this hotel you can walk to t

The journey that broke the tire rim of the vehicle - Meemure

The journey that broke the tire rim of the vehicle - Meemure (I use Google Translate because my knowledge of English is very limited. Point out any errors. Thank you.)      Meemure is one of the most beautiful places in Sri Lanka. The film Suriya Arana was also shot here. From the way this village got its name, everything is delicious.      The mountain range in the Hunnasgiriya area was formerly known as the Dumbara Range. Dumbara means "always foggy". That's true. This village is located in the Dumbara Valley. This is a very difficult village and is isolated from the rest of the country.There is a "bee" tree at the entrance to this village. This is a very large tree and even today a vehicle cannot enter the village. The village is called "Mee Mura - Mee Mure" because this tree guards the village.      I went to this village a few years ago. We rode two three-wheelers with 7 friends. I bought my three wheeler (second hand) and left on the second day.

 Drink tea with "Kitul Jaggery" (I use Google Translate because my knowledge of English is very limited. Point out any errors. Thank you.)      The Kitul jaggery industry in Sri Lanka has a very long history. It is a good source of income for the people of Uva Province. There is a lot to talk about in this industry, which is now in a state of great decline. But if you are visiting Sri Lanka you should definitely try Kitul Jaggery. If you visit places like "Meegahakiula", "Bibila", "Rideemaliyadda", "Passara", "Welimada", "Kandaketiya" you will find those flavors.      This is a story from a certain folklore in Sri Lanka. At that time there was a man who supplied jaggery to the royal palace. The king also loves his "jaggery". But the king never went to the place where he made jaggery. One day the king brings the man who makes "jaggery" to him and asks him:      Your jaggery is very tasty. I love it

Three abandoned places in Sri Lanka (I use Google Translate because my knowledge of English is very limited. Point out any errors. Thank you.)      In this article I intend to explore the currently abandoned places in Sri Lanka. This article will be very interesting for those who like the mystery of abandoned old places. Also, if you are visiting Sri Lanka, do not forget to visit these places. 1. Udupussellawa Railway.      This road, which was started in 1900, was completely closed in 1948. Also, this is a narrow railroad. That is, the width of the road is 2 feet and 6 inches. This is the most important point. Pattipola (6204) is the highest railway station currently in use in Sri Lanka. However, it is reported that the Ragala railway station on the Udupussellawa railway line is even higher (6316). There were 11 railway stations on this route and today there are parts of the dilapidated railway line and parts of those railway stations. 2. Trincomalee Oil Storage Tank Complex.      The

Currency "pepper"

Currency "pepper" (I use Google Translate because my knowledge of English is very limited. Point out any errors. Thank you.) There are different legends in different countries about pepper which is known as the king of spices. The history of pepper cultivation in Sri Lanka too goes back a long way. Pepper is native to India. Pepper has been used in India since about 2000 BC. There is also evidence that pepper was used in ancient Egypt. Necklaces made of peppercorns have been found in their mummies. However, due to the favorable environmental conditions for the pepper in Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka has also been subjected to foreign invasions. Considering the history of pepper in Sri Lanka, it is very close to the lives of Sri Lankans. Even today, there is a high price for pepper, which is found in almost every kitchen. People who like spicy foods definitely use pepper. Pepper also stimulates the appetite. Due to the high demand for these peppers, pepper has been sold at very high pr

Products that have lost their patents to Sri Lanka

Products that have lost their patents to Sri Lanka (I use Google Translate because my knowledge of English is very limited. Point out any errors. Thank you.) Sri Lanka is a developing country. But the countries that were like us at the time we are in this situation are chasing us today. Even the countries that were far below us are much more developed today than we are. The main reason for this is the very immoral political pattern in Sri Lanka. This country is being destroyed today by corrupt politicians who have no policy. Sri Lanka, with its many resources, has in the past even exported rice to many countries around the world. The number one tea produced in Sri Lanka is also exported. Sri Lanka was also in a very advanced state in the garment industry. Sri Lanka also has many valuable resources such as spices, gems, diamonds and pearls. The most important thing is the ingenuity of Sri Lankans. History bears witness to that. The hospital found during excavations in Anuradhapura, is t

Sinhala Sayings - 2 (Andare's Stories) (I use Google Translate because my knowledge of English is very limited. Point out any errors. Thank you.) Andare is the clown in the palace. There are many folk tales about him in Sinhala folklore. There is also a strange type of tomb in Sri Lanka which is considered to be his. Andare is such a joker that even the way he died is a joke. This is one of his stories. Deaf fighting - This story is about the jokes Andare made to the queen. One day Andre is talking to the queen. Then the queen says: "Andare, I would love to meet your wife."      Andare thought this was a good opportunity to make fun of the queen and showed the queen that he was sad thinking for a while. Seeing this, the queen asked Andare why. "Queen, if I can get her to meet you. But there is one problem." "What is Andare?" "Queen, her ears are weak. So you have to talk to her out loud. That's what I was thinking." "Ah, that's n
