No need for winter jackets, glows, or winter tires on your car. It is summer 365 days a year. Vegetation grows 365 a days year. Damn, what a heavenly weather in Sri Lanka.
Shocking that its only a few miles away from India, but 10x cleaner! lol I notice that the further south in India you go, the cleaner it gets, so I guess it makes sense. lol
For future reference, that Laugfs you passed at 10:14 is also a supermarket. Has a better range of stuff as well in my eyes. I like SL, but I'm not a big fan of Wellawatta. Way too noisy and congested for my tastes.
Don't be racist. They are all Sri Lankans. The budhist temples also blast their songs on poya days and stuff. But I agree, the sounds from ALL religious institutions shud not he allowed to be that loud cos it becomes annoying after a while.
Wellawatte is very near 2 Colombo, most of Tamil and Muslims are living in that area. but still some people said, Sinhala people hurt to others. if its true how they stay like this... Fake new distorted that beautiful country.
In Colombo and in the hill country Tamils are treated well. However if you go to notlrth and east they are not treated properly even today. Army is regulating those areas. I am Sinhalese and it is not normal Sinhala ppl who are hurting Tamils, it is the politicians who are doing it.
Galle Road and W.A Silva mavatha lot changed like a Weston country this time good chance to sell my Galle Road building.lot of money excencer have a Black money.better sell now.

It is surprising Colombo city 62% Tamil speaking(30% Tamil Hindus, christians32% Tamil Muslims) ,this area wellawatte is dominated by Tamil speaking people,they are full majority,likewise petta,kollupitya all commercial hubs dominated by Tamil speaking people,I think Sinhala mostly in rural areas.
hahahaa 😆. Who told you ? There is no district in srilanka exept jaffna, vavuniya and nuwaraeliya, which has a larger tamil speaking population. Almost all the billioniors and business holders are sinhalese. Places like kollupitiya, wellawatta is total industrialized area. No proper places to live except multimillion apartments. Most of the population live in those area is working people for various companies. Live in houses like slums. Tamils are well practised to live in such a environment. Sinhalese are not. So don’t spread hilarious facts for people who don’t know colombo. 🤣
@@TheLastTraveller these are false facts. You can google and see. There is only 11% of tamil people and almost all the tamil people live in jaffna and nuwara eliya. And 9% muslims.

I didn't use my VISA cards last time. I had the money in cash and it was enough for me.
