Talking about Sri Lanka, hell yeah, its
country of wonders! during my first and the only (as per yet)visit to this
wonderful country back in the year 2014, i frankly experienced the true
definition of natural beauty. i ve been to a lot of countries since the
beginning of my teenage time, and outta these countries.
Sri Lanka was surely a BEST one. talking
about the people in it, Sri Lankans, regardless of where they are, how old they
are, or what religion or nationality they belong to, they SMILE! they smile all
the time.. and i guess that's why everyone calls them polite. and i guess its
the true symbol of hospitality! they talk Sinhala, not all, but the majority, a
nice language, which is quite rhythmic. and once again, the specialty is they
speak with a smile. and this makes us kind of feel what they intend to mean,
although the language and the words are not ours. and not to forget, they are
helpful! too helpful, and yes, unbelievably helpful to all.
Lets say you are a foreigner, and you are
lost in a village, about which you have no clew of.. guys, if you are in Sri
Lanka, and if you ve got Sri Lankans around, believe me YOU ARE NOT LOST. and
you are not alone either. they volunteer to help you. they show you short cuts
to reach your destinations, and sometimes you stand a chance to enjoy a king
coconut drink from one of the house holds on the way! they are good like that.
and talking with them, its indeed one of the nicest experiences one can ever
get in his life. know why, they don't know fluent English. (come on.. no one of
us is perfectly fluent right? ), but they offer to help you and forget your
loneliness even forgetting their inability ti communicate well with us. they
consider you their own. not a stranger any more. and guess what, you need to feel
this! and their, places! i call them their treasures. sigiriya, Tample of Tooth
Relic, Dambulla, Anuradhapura Sacred City are some of the places i visited
personally, and quite sadly there are quite a lot of places i could not reach
to during my trip, especially due to the rainy weather prevailed at the time of
my visit.
Sri Lanka has it all!, may it be
jungles, seas, rivers, lakes, mountains, streams, paddy fields, what ever! but
not volcanoes fortunately! they are a historical nation. they have a unique
heritage. they ve had their own kings, their own kingdoms, and they have their
own stories with regard to the history. you should see how they tell these
stories with full of pride in their eyes. wow!
