Beautiful Ancient Village

  Rajanganaya 🌄




 



Rajanganaya, which was created under the name “Royal Garden,” is the beautiful village where I was born. This ancient village is located in the Anuradhapura District of Sri Lanka and was established during the period of the Anuradhapura Kingdom.

Rajanganaya has gained special value because of the Rajanganaya Reservoir located there. This reservoir provides water for farming activities during the dry season. Due to the irrigation system connected to the tank, this area is well known for agricultural activities. 

A large variety of birds and animals live around the Rajanganaya Reservoir area. The skill of ancient kings in conserving water can clearly be seen through this reservoir. Today, especially during the rainy season, many tourists visit the reservoir area. 


The lives of the people in my village are very simple and beautiful. The calmness of the village brings peace to the mind. I truly love living while enjoying the beauty of my village.

We Who Came Together by Chance

 Friends who don't remember  Although the three of us lived in the same city, we had never known each other before. None of us were familiar with one another. Yet today, we are close friends. This friendship began because of our university activities. On a beautiful day in Anuradhapura, the three of us visited sacred places together and spent our time very happily. We enjoyed delicious food and drinks, bought clothes, and spent the day with joy and laughter. Before we even realized it, evening had arrived. Although we said goodbye and parted ways, my heart wished to stay with them a little longer. With the hope of meeting again, I returned home thinking about how beautiful days pass by so quickly.💔💝
