The Jaffna peninsula is located just north of the Sri Lankan island. With bustling towns and lively surroundings, Jaffna makes for one amazing destination. Visitors can also visit the remote islands the house habitation. The area is filled with Palmyra Palms and lagoons which usually houses flamingos shortly after rains. 

Jaffna has been through a lot, especially with terrorism and war spanning more than two and half decades between the Sri Lankan armed forces and LTTE. Although the terrors and suffering of what occurred during that period will remain, the people of Jaffna have been rebuilding their lives since 2009, with a revived sense of hope. Travelers can visit colonial period churches in Jaffna town, watch wild horses graze on the remote islands, take a swim in the sea at Casuarina beach in Karainagar, and observe majestic birds during birding season. For the avid traveler, Jaffna truly is a place you wouldn’t want to miss.
