Hello guys. It's 27 degrees in Central Sri Lanka even in the morning. I love hot weather though❤ We can enjoy and Happy Sri Lankan Sinhala and Tamil new year for you two🥳 welcome to Sri Lanka🙏🏽🇱🇰
I am visiting Sri Lanka, our first touristic visit during second week of May. Culturally and historically very close to India hence first choice. Hope visit will be nice.
So funny @ 7.55, yes you were right Abby, you didn't see Gaz put that drink behind your elbow! but you were also right Gaz in defending yourself by being called an idiot! you are both so lovely & nice, just remember that you are great together! well most of the time! ha ha I'm heading off to Sri Lanka in July & I can't wait! it looks gorgeous
The green lake is called "Beira" Lake it was buit by the British to transport goods to Colombo. Its stagnant water so it's polluted water. It's not been used anymore!
Unfortunately, due to misguided nationalism, they don’t teach proper colonial history in Sri Lanka anymore. The British colonials were not big on water transport, favouring instead the construction of roads and railways. Their predecessors, the Dutch, built a network of canals for transport of agricultural produce like Cinnamon along the southwest coastal plain. The Beira Lake was built even earlier on. In 1518, the Portuguese who were ruling Colombo were under seige by local ruler, King Vijayabahu VII, so they built a moat (later enlarged to form the lake) around their Fort as a way to protect the Portuguese controlled city.
Thanks for choosing Sri Lanka as your travel destination. I hope you won't regret about your choice and definitely you will visit Sri Lanka again. Safe travel. Love From Sri Lanka ❤️❤️.
Nice explore keep it up. Here are some Sinhala words that help both of you. Hello - Same as Hello or Ayubowan/ How are you - Kohomada / Thank You - Stutii / Fine - Hondai / how much - Keeyada? / Let's go - Api yamu. 😊
13:24 sri lankans say Ayubowan ආයුබෝවන් 🙏 hand together bow in little bit to respect the people met with = Ayu (ආයු live )+ bowan (have more) ( wishing to live longer )
Also world should understand that SL is and never have been like India in many ways!! It has always been clean n not chaotic n people are calm n quieter
You wanna visit a *country* for a vacation in South Asia? Just visit Sri Lanka. Nothing else. No any other landmasses can be called as *Countries* coz they seem like a whole different planet. Pollution at it's best
Great Vlog - jazzy cricket top - top tip is always to wear dark colours when sweating - loved the #pelicans - would like to have seen the #cobra eating #monkey 😊
You need to try out of colombo, special recommended kandy village, habarana, try sri lanak real village, if you need find kind and love, buddhist peoples will give real love. ❤❤
That SL cricket t-shirt for Rs 2,500...that's effing cheap mate. Also the more cheaper u go the quality goes down..... -Drink u had was papaya juice, it's a tropical fruit in SL. Very healthy and good for the skin, if you drink all the time...lol You can also eat that too... -Yeah why he put the drink behind your arm? LMAO.... :P -SL can understand "hello" and "thank you" in English. It's a British colony and English is one of the main languages. Specially ,if you are in Colombo, you don't have to worry about the language much. But out of Colombo also you can use hello and thank you. We don't say ayubowan in social settings. It's more of a formal/ offical setting in public sector officers.
To those Sri Lankans who spread hate towards India remember your place is still behind the best state of India - Kerala in many factors. Literacy, poverty rate etc.
@@arjunraj823 but sri lanka hdi is higher than kerala. It tops in south asia by huge margin. Almost near to to very high hdi nation, but india recently only got into medium hdi 😂😂 know your level kiddo.. you cant compare the state with country. Only one state with higher hdi.. rest are below medium 😂😂
I'd say in present Sri Lanka Aayuborwan is a formal greeting. The equivalent to hello in everyday usage would be "Kohomada" which translates to "How are you" but its really received as "Hello, how are you".
When you buy any thing in Srilanka please hagel ,do not pay firest asking price. even TIK TUK rid dont pay first asking price. If you gagel price will get cheaper . Enjoy the lovely little country.
welcome to Sri Lanka Paradise hi am Anton owner of mount revolution water sports club in Trincomali Nilaveli i warmly invited to come to our club and i give you free water sports package coz you poromoting our country and tourism industry if you like it feel free send me a mg thank you
Dive straight in to SL culture they say is Petta? Seriously! R you serious! This is commercial area of SL not its culture!! For god sake don’t spread fake or wrong information !!! It is not certainly not similar to Chennai at all! Get serious stop spreading false information! Go to gallface, colombo 3, 5 area , colombo 7 is the most expensive area in colombo . Go to how people live in colombo !
Yeah I stopped watching when she called you and idiot. That’s so rudely inappropriate no matter what the circumstance. Then she doubled down on it. If he did something intentional to hurt or harm you, then that’s a different story.
@@AbbyandGaz Water is looking green coloured not due to pollution ,but Algee devolved due to extreme weather conditions. . From the day I can remember for 40 years or more it always looks green . .but if you take water to a glass then you see it's a neutral in colour. So many governments including foreign companies try to clean it but are not successful. Now one Japanese company is working on it .they say More oxygen into water will clear the algae. Let's wait and see. Have a nice journey
@@chanakadushmantha7036 It's not due to algae, it stinks to the core, because people pollute it, accept it. Even sewage is connected from some of the boutique. At this day and age with technology and machinery it's not a big deal to clean this tiny pond. There are hundreds of such man made ponds across Asia with absolutely clean waterways, I'm not even comparing this with UK or Europe but I have seen better lakes and ponds in places like Thailand, Myanmar and Indonesia.

Ahhh thanks for all this info ☺️
I think it is way more historical.
Unfortunately, due to misguided nationalism, they don’t teach proper colonial history in Sri Lanka anymore.
The British colonials were not big on water transport, favouring instead the construction of roads and railways. Their predecessors, the Dutch, built a network of canals for transport of agricultural produce like Cinnamon along the southwest coastal plain.
The Beira Lake was built even earlier on. In 1518, the Portuguese who were ruling Colombo were under seige by local ruler, King Vijayabahu VII, so they built a moat (later enlarged to form the lake) around their Fort as a way to protect the Portuguese controlled city.
Thanks a lot for visiting this fabulous and mesmerizing country.

☺️❤️ yessss
You are right you should not pay to see animal cruelty. they are not meant to be chained
Exactly 🙌🏻 we agree ☺️
indeed . instead they should eat hambaken all day walk the dog with a leash and then lecture the third world about animal rights.
That place is dirty and full of scammers.. skip it.. same food is elsewhere
The bright green due to algae
It’s so green!!
❤ srilanka
Yes ☺️❤️
To those Sri Lankans who spread hate towards India remember your place is still behind the best state of India - Kerala in many factors. Literacy, poverty rate etc.
In your dream only kerala better than sri lanka 😂😂
@@ReactWithSammy 😂 First reduce the poverty of SL and tell this. Kerala is the least poverty prone area in south Asia with high Hdi.
@@arjunraj823 so pity for your knowledge. Check the poverty rate of kerala & sri lanka before you talk illiterate indian fellow 😂😂
@@arjunraj823 but sri lanka hdi is higher than kerala. It tops in south asia by huge margin. Almost near to to very high hdi nation, but india recently only got into medium hdi 😂😂 know your level kiddo.. you cant compare the state with country. Only one state with higher hdi.. rest are below medium 😂😂
Bro i can understand your desperation. We are better tgan indians in all forms😂
Sri lanken new cricket team member 👍
Haha love it 👍🏻🙌🏻
ARUBOOWAN is coman wishing (Like Good day or Good wishes)
So would you use it to say hello ☺️?
For How are you? We say 'kohomada' and normally we use 'Ayubowan' which means 'may you live long' to say Hello also.❤
I'd say in present Sri Lanka Aayuborwan is a formal greeting. The equivalent to hello in everyday usage would be "Kohomada" which translates to "How are you" but its really received as "Hello, how are you".
abby is right who puts drink like that, gaz is definitely trying to make abby spill the juice, definitely gaz should have had more situation awareness
Hahaha thanks Raveen! All a bit of a joke though ☺️🙌🏻
Foreigners pls don't try local market in CMB 😮 Try mega shopping malls in Colombo ❤ OneGalleFace ColomboCityCenter LibertyPlaza HavlockCity MarinaMall MajesticCity ArcadeInderpandeceSqure

U can find things much cheaper in India then Srilanka. People from S Lanka come to Tamil Nadu state of India to shop
It's other way around. 😂😂😂
😂😂
Cheap things are not good and good things are not Cheap
I m only talking about inflation bro.. Otherwise S Lanka is a beautiful place.. Love from 🇮🇳
True.. Better and more options in India.. I love Tamil Nadu..

Calm down. In some cultures insults between couples are used playfully like a game not a cause for divorce! 😁
Colombo not clean
It was very clean when we were there
Thats a filthy lake/pond

Mainly its due to some kind of green algee. They are trying to remove it..but its not easy
