JAFFNA REVISITED
June 06, 2025
|Daily Mirror - Sri Lanka
We set off early from Colombo by van to Jaffna and complete the journey in seven hours.
-
It is my sixth visit to the city on the northern tip of Sri Lanka. Previous journeys have been by train, car, van and two times flying. One of these was during the ceasefire in 2002 during the LTTE conflict. Jaffna was heavily impacted in the war and also hit by a tsunami.
This visit sees more new infrastructure and cleaner streets. Life hopefully has somewhat returned to normal after all the devastating setbacks. Sunset over any sea facing a fort on the island is magical. There is sadly a lot of garbage outside this fort and along the water front. It's likely the second biggest fort in Sri Lanka, sadly renovation looks a very slow process.
