[Trincomalee] A cliff-top temple with a spectacular view of the ocean below

A serene Hindu temple for worship and meditation A huge statue of Lord Shiva exudes grace and power to welcome you The ocean view from the temple on the cliff is truly beautiful, and it has become my favorite place in Trincomalee Souvenir shops and sweet shops line the path from the entrance to the temple. Ice cream was 100 rupees. It is a place of relaxation where deer and monkeys also relax 📍Access It is not far from the center of town, so you can easily get there by tuk-tuk. I walked back to the city on my way back. From the entrance, it is a gentle uphill walk through the fort grounds to reach the temple itself 🕰️Opening hours: 6:30-13:00 16:00-18:45 💰Price per person: Free entry, only 20 rupees for shoe storage You need to leave your shoes in a shoebox managed by a person, and walk barefoot inside. On your way out, you can pick up your shoes by paying 20 rupees. #SriLanka

Trinco Water Restaurant

Sri Lanka's Tangalle on the east coast of the country has very high-quality beaches with excellent water quality, suitable for vacation, diving, surfing, whale watching, and is the best tourist destination. The best scenic spot is Nilaveli Beach, Pigeon Island for diving, and the ancient Hindu temple of Shiva is very distinctive. It is not suitable for a superficial visit and is the best vacation spot. The homestays there are all very good and are located right next to the sea with white and delicate sandy beaches.
