World heritage City of Kandy is the last capital of ancient Sri Lanka in kings era. It's still the religious and cultural capital of the country. In addition to numerous tourists attractions like misty mountains, Ambuluwawa biodiversity park, tropical evergreen forest in Udawattakeke , Dunumadalawa wild life reserves, Hanthana mountain for hiking and tea plantations, Royal Botanical gardens in and numerous historic and ancient sites; the iconic Kandy to Ella train ride also start from Kandy.
why we suddenly changed the name of polonnaruwa kingdom in late 20th century?? its ancient name was PULASTHI PURA , the next kingdom after anuradha pura , even the rock tablets written 2200 years ago call itself as pulasti pura , and we call it polonnaruwa???
@@skipper2594 Fine. I didn't know that. However, all is not lost for you! I searched the web and I find that not only does Pulasthipura exist (with even a Police Station), but it is "23 min (14.1 km) via Somawathiya Rd/B488". That quote is from the map itself! Please try to continue this fascinating conversation; it will be easy for you to find my contact details! I was not alive in 1800 - some imagine me to be so old that they think that I was.

Perhaps our one-time President, Maithripala Sirisena, would be able to tell us! I mean this seriously; I'm from Bandarawela and don't know that area well. Why not tell us something about yourself, "skipper"? I know the word means captain of a ship - that surely needs no explanation. However, as seriously, we once had a dog named "Skipper"! That is the truth! Not an attempt to insult you! I've given your comment a "thumbs-up". Bye for now! I want to know you better! I'm making this comment just after midnight on 04/09/2024. "Yesterday" was the 3rd, and on the 2nd evening I heard my hero, AKD, speak in Bandarawela to a crowd of around five thousand. No hope of my being able to talk to him then, as I did for a memorable five minutes on 21/01/2023. And what do you make of my earlier comment that the Kandy Perahera is NOT 2,500 years old?
The way Sinhalese words are written in English results in people mispronouncing them. The "n" in Sinhalese words tends to make an "ng" sound. So Sinhalese or Sinhala is pronounced "Singalese" or "Singaler". The same thing with "Sri Lanka", people say "Sri Langka", not "Sri Lan-ka". The Sri Lankan dish, "wattalapan" is pronounced "wattalapang", "kankun" is pronounced "kangkung" and so on.
@@DivinerSL I think even a child knows it election doesn't happen in RUclips. Servey is a scientific method of predicting future occurances. Humans need scientifically achieved predictions to know the possibility of happening things in advance. That's the reason since back in the days to now basic, ground level serveys are still the best way to predict and they almost never failed. And servey shows Ranil not even the Runner up.

most of the elephants here willingly bear the dantha dathu karaduwa. it not harm until the controller didnt hit him from the staff, as I know its so rare they use it only if a elephant become aggressive
Yes the sacred tooth carrying elephant is being in the temple of the tooth relic. He is living a luxurious life as a royal elephant. It's a tradition. It's happening since a long time ago.
@@skipper2594 Theres nothing wrong in being patriotic to your motherland but it doesn't mean that you should admire every bs. How do you know elephants are doing it willingly? Do they come out of the wild to hold this casket? I wont argue with you if you point out that this a cultural thing and so on. But saying that elephants are not being harmed during these socalled religious events is bullshit. They are literally enslaved tbh.Elephants are wild animals so ofc they are aggressive ,it doesnt give any right to harm them since we are thepeople who capture them and put restrictions on their life. At Least sri lanka should maintain some standards in this regard. Its not an unknown fact that those mahouts are drug addicts. Elephants are used for hard labour, No proper veterinary care, using chains, etc. These things need to be changed at least

Sri Lanka has so much potential to become a developed nation in a very short time.
its already the most developed country in south asia with highest HDI of 0.782

Well probably because it's not a religious event, it's mostly cultural right?
@diviner2000 it's definitely a Buddhist event.
