FORT FREDERICK is the name left by the Dutch, although it is Portuguese, first occupied here, and then the British, centuries of colonization. Does it feel like acquainted? Our island of Taiwan, not first Portugal, then the Netherlands, if it is not Zheng success, maybe, it is the same fate, and even then, has not escaped, far-reaching, Japanese colonization. So, whether the country is strong or not, it is really a pain. That said, this fortress on the eastern promontory of Trincomalee, the bay at the entrance is beautiful, the sea is crystal clear, far more pure than the famous, the hotel's two beaches of UPPUVELI and Nilaveli are more pure. The fortress was once a British naval base, and in World War II was the headquarters of Lord Montbarton, and now it has become the stationing place of the Ceylon Army, which is full of ancient trees and greenery, and it is comfortable to walk around aimlessly. Of course, for children, the most interesting thing is the intimate contact with the sika deer. No one can say why the streets of Trincomalee have been haunted by sika deer, but this kind of cute animal at first glance, it is indeed visible everywhere, the fortress is quiet and peaceful, and it has become their favorite habitat. Long-term harmony with people, so that the sika deer here is not afraid of people, if you have some food, it will be close to you, gentle and gentle like a lady, feeding is nothing, completely indisputable good mentality. I really don't know, how did such a good thing grow up in the LTTE base camp from generation to generation? Finally, the high place of the fortress is also a bit, the sea and the sky are refreshing, the beautiful place, I hope you will not suffer the chaos of war anymore.

Sri Lanka's oldest Shelita, Thhuparamaya, is also the first Buddhist building built in the 3rd century BC. Unlike the Great White Tower I have visited before, there are many stone pillars around, some are obviously tilted, so that the white pagoda under the blue sky adds a lot of vicissitudes.

Inside the holy city there is one of the few ancient Buddha statues. The sculpture of this Buddha statue is very particular. It is said that this Buddha statue will have different expressions from different angles. It can be imagined that the sculpture technology at that time was superb. You need to take off your shoes when you enter the Buddha statue visiting area. The parties are very religious and they take off their shoes directly. Step barefoot on the small stone, kneel before the Buddha statue, hands closed, then prayed reverently.
