Yapahuwa Rock Fortress / Sri Lanka

 Yapahuwa Rock Fortress / Sri Lanka


Yapahuwa is world famous Rock Fortress lying midway between Kurunegala and Anuradhapura Sri Lanka.    It was the capital of the country for a brief period of King 4th Buwanekabahu's king period. 

Me (at the to of the rock)


We visited there when we were on our way home  Anuradhapura. When we reached there it was evening.

At the foot of the rock there was a ancient Buddhist temple. First of all we worshipped the temple. Then we started to climb. The first set of staircase was amazing 😲  Because it was single straight.

World famous Yapahuwa lion statues could see after that. 🦁🦁 Actually I felt proud and surprise when I saw those lion statues made of stones.

Then there was a foot path across a little jungle. After the jungle path we reached to the difficult part of the journey. Because again there was a single straight staircase. It was hard and dangerous than the earlier one. 😰

Somehow, after 10 - 15 minutes we could reach the top of the rock.  Actually the view was amazing. Because it was evening and sun shine also no hard. 

We spent around 10 minutes at the top of the rock and started to got down. 

Single Straight Staircase 

So, If you love historical places and ancient cities this is good place to visit. Also, This journey can be called a trip where you can get more pleasure and knowledge for less money. πŸ˜πŸ€‘

Lunch in a Mat

           Lunch in a Mat It was a Sinha-Hindu Aluth Avurudu day. Our home is next to our uncle's home. So after doing rituals, we were used to move there. So that day Avurudu rituals were ended around 10.00 a.m. Our youngest sister made on idea for a out door lunch in a mat. Finally her idea was succeed. My two elder sisters, two younger sisters and me helped our mothers to prepare meals.    crazy me   Finally we prepared a very delicious meal for our lunch then we carried meal pots to the mat. Then we enjoyed our lunch with very joy. Actually  that experience was very funny. Though, it was a new experience for us, Muslims have their meal always that way. I mean by sitting on the floor.                                                                      ...

 πŸ˜ Crazy Win Most of the people near to Colombo know the 'One Galle face Shopping Mole'. So, there is a gamming zone to win different kind of teddies by putting 100 rupee. πŸ˜† That is the only one game, that  can do at there, the people who are in mid range families like us.  So, one day our lectures were ended earlier. Then we planned in a jiffy to visit 'One Galle Face'. So, we visited there and took lots of photos by walking everywhere. πŸ˜‚Because that is the only one thing, that can do with out money at there.  Then we moved to the gamming zone. Actually, I had tried that game another day before that day. It means already I had wasted 100 rupee for that game. 😐But I couldn't win. So, that day was my second day of trying that game.  So, I checked patiently and put my 100 rupee to a box with full of beautiful bunnies.  OMG!!!!!!  Yah.......I won . I won ... Yah........... Lottery winner πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Actually, I felt very happy like I won a lottery. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚?...
