Jaffna is the Capital of the Northern Province of Sri Lanka. This quiet city has witness many changes in Sri Lanka’s past. With its inception dating back to the reign of the Kings that once governed Sri Lanka to the colonial era, who developed Jaffna as one of their major strong holds. All these magnificent buildings have stood the test of time and serve as a historical must-see destination. Jaffna is anchored by the Jaffna Fort which was built during the Dutch colonial period which dates back to the early 1600s.

As the town was isolated from most Sri Lankans during the recently ended civil conflict and many of us grew up never seeing it but hearing the many intriguing stories of the grandeur of this city from our elders. Our first impressions when we got there was the feel of ‘yester-year’. Time has stood still in this city, the old colonial buildings still well maintained and used, classic cars roam the city and are used as taxis, the people of Jaffna are the most refreshing, to say the least. If Sri Lanka is the nation of the smiling people, the Jaffna is its capital.

Jaffna is home to many educational institutions that were established during the colonial and post-colonial periods. It also has many commercial institutions, minor industrial units, banks, many charming hotels and boutique resorts and other government institutions such as the Jaffna Base Hospital. It is home to the popular Jaffna library that was burnt down during the civil conflict and rebuilt.

We will visit Selva Sannithi Temple , Thuraiyappah Stadium, Jaffna Library, O.L.R. Church, St. Mary’s Church, Casurina Beach, Paruthitivu, Natural Harbor, Sankiliyan Curve, Sankiliyan Manthirimanai, Kilali – Allipalai Beach, Durkaiamman Temple, Naguleswaram Temple Maviddampuram Temple.
