    I think Sri Lanka is much cleaner and safer than LA. Didn’t see that many homeless people or addicts in your SL videos. 🤔 Anyways great video! Keep up the good work ❤

    I see people setting up shops on the sidewalk in Brooklyn, NY. This is something you see mostly in the third world countries; however, we have people from all over, so they bring their customs and culture with them.
    BTW, the garden is lovely, and I frequent the one in Bk because it is so peaceful and tranquil.
    Great journey, Chris, and I am enjoying every minute of it 😀

    Let's say that 2000 rupees is the correct price to enjoy this one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world and the locals get to access it for a discounted price of 250 rupees coz it's their heritage and culture to enjoy. It happens pretty much everywhere in the world. MONA, Hobart, AU. St.Petersburg, Russia, Poland, Spain.. etc

      1800s? I don't think there is any active rolling stock in the world which is that old. Those carriages are imported from Astra Rail company in Romania between 1979-1990s. Many of them were refurbished recently, while in order to replace the ones which cannot run, new coaches were imported from ICF Chennai.
