Pearl of the Indian Ocean

When am was in primary school, Sri Lanka always link to TEA in mine small world. After 20 years then am realise SL is so similar with us but it's almost 20 years behind us to be frank. To known better of mine SL buddy, SL trips die-die must on even end of Dec was so critical bcoz of "Tamil Tigers" attack. East and north of country was declare war so am not allowed to enter. Argh! wasted...am miss Yala national park.
Keretapi still common used in SL. 3 years ago, 1k+ of innocent peoples died hiding into the trains during the disaster hit SL.
This public bus consider gd condition. SL roads are the worst am experiences for the past am been. Am spent 4 hrs for traveling 120km to Kandy. President M, you are asshole! Columbo..it so quite like dead city due to Tamil Tiger. Old Parliament behind me full of armies..

Am shock bcoz of elephane cross behind of me...
There are minor different between SL & TL elephanes...size of ears! TL bigger...
Road to Kandy...

Lake in front of Buddha Tooth temple
Kandy lies in the midst of hills in the Kandy Valley and associated with the history of the dissemination of Buddhism.
Inside the temple of tooth. Ramai Sami dari TL. Orang yang cakap Cantonese pun ada.
Relic of Tooth of the Buddha store behind the door. Every evening 730pm pintu akan buka untuk those holy peoples pray which is me....
Pintu buka tapi am seen nothing even am tall enough! Argh...tooth...apa pun tak dak!
Hand craft timber wood beams and columns...woo spectacular!

Ramai orang sembayang tau...My opinions, it is too many Buddha temples in SL, as many like our masjid and surau. Seem a-bit waste for the Government money.

Ancient City of Sigiriya, one of main purposes am visit SL. It contains the ruins of an ancient palace complex, built during the reign of King Kasyapa (477 – 495 AD). 200m to climb up to top....
Having mine wonderful breakfast before climbing up that batu!

Going to rain soon.
Have a break with banana!
Fatty was waiting down stair...too heavy can't roll.
The white dot far from here is Buddha stature.
The painting all peel off after 1500 yrs.
Am standing at the highest point of this stone....2000 yrs ago, they build palace here!
Polonnaruwa, famous with sleeping Buddha....
UFO!
These 4 stature Buddha age 1500 as well.
One rules must remember, SL peoples dont allow us posting in front of Buddhe statue bcoz our "ka cheng" facing Buddha face...
Am exhausted after climbing that 200m...am old!
West coast beaches nothing special besides gd for surfing...Surfing, am coming!
Hey Gangster...nak lawan malam itu!
That night mine small pondok no electricity...too much mosquitoes.
The coconuts in SL sweeter than TL!
Galle, the southern part of SL, full of peoples on that day fbcoz of cricket match.
