Duration

clock2 hours 30 minutes

Overview

    Unravel the profuse entangled layers of history of the Dutch, Portuguese and British past of Jaffna as they stand inconspicuously in plain sight. The tour also pays attention to how the local architectural traditions transformed through the different periods of Jaffna history until the post-colonial times.
    Its not just a historical tour but talks about the evolution of architecture in this region as well.
    Join me as I present an amalgamation of the history, architectural traditions and the cultural significance of Jaffna's rich cultural heritage and buildings.
    The tour starts from a rundown British Government building and then moves through the remnants of Second World War, British houses, religious and government edifices. Towards the end, we shall reach the library of Jaffna all the while appreciating the contrast between the architecture and ideology of the colonial and the post-colonial era of Jaffna.
    The tour ends with a finger-licking Jaffna breakfast at a local restaurant.
