Unawatuna, a coastal town situated in the Southern part of Sri Lanka in Galle district is well known for its beautiful beaches and corals.
The mythical and legendary backdrop of Unawatuna can be dug out from the epic discourse "Ramayana" by Valmiki. Hanuman, who was a warrier-monkey with super powers had been advised to bring five rare medicinal plants from Himalaya ( India) in order to cure Lakshman, who visited Srilanka to save an abducted princess called Sita.
Even though Hanuman went back to India to find the medicinal plants he was unable to identify them and brought back a large part of the mountain Himalaya and dropped it in Sri Lanka, in the place where we identify as Unawatuna today. An alternative mythical story suggests that a prince who was shipwrecked reached the shore of Unawatuna with the help of the goddess Manimekalai.
Though he was challenged by the fire which goddess Pattini set on the ground, he managed to create a Tsunami and reached Unawatuna. He has lived there for a long period of time.

The colonial period of the country marks several milestones with regard to Unawatuna. The houses and other apartments built by the Dutch in this area include the Nooit Gadacht Hotel, Unawatuna Hospital and Maharambe.
The Galle lighthouse or Edward's Pillar is known to be a fake lighthouse built during the first world war at Rumassala hill which is located in this area.

Unawatuna being rich in its biodiversity, is popular for its mangrove growth, the vast variety of birds (such as egrets, sandpipers, herons, terns and kingfishes) and also for the coral reef which attracts divers. Even though the Unawatuna beach was attacked by Tsunami in 2004, it is still listed down as one of the best 100 beaches on earth.

So, if you are planning on your journey to Sri Lanka, never think twice to write down Unawatuna beach-town as a must-visit!

picture is mine.
Life is a mystery. You can't fathom everything about an individual. Some starts very well and end up in chaos in the course of life's journey.
Some had a tough starting but ended up well. Whereas some neither started well nor ended well. Hmmmm what a mystery.
Thanks to the management of stars community to bring forth my heartfelt felicitation for my dear friend that clocks forty years today. I realised that whatever you do to others, same shall be unto you. I would to share some great moments I had with my friend since our path crossed.
I don't so much like talking about people anyhow but for this God's creature, I have been persuaded in my spirit to share. I won't want to flatter anyone but these are realities I have seen, touched and lived with. There are friends that smiles at an individual but deep within their heart is pool of evil intention and destruction. Notwithstanding, there are special specie out there though rare but yet possesses an angelic virtue that can't be overturned easily.
This chap is loving and caring. Very passionate about purpose and life's goal. The first time I saw him, greatness was radiant on him hmmm his dimple which normally comes out once he smiles is just amazing. His love for human capital development drove me massively to him. I never knew he was such a bunch of simplicity. Immediately he saw me, there was witness in his spirit for us to move together.
Time is the accurate revealer of everything. After a while, God orchestrated some things to knit us more closely. Hence I started relating with him freely, came to his house stayed and in fact turned to be my second home.
He pastor's a church with few members but never discouraged because he knew who called him.
I can't forget to share one of the outstanding thing I learnt from him. He taught me how to make local cake from soya beans. He patiently outline the processes for me and I did though the hot water splashed on my hands but immediately some local first aid was done. Wow so I can be order industrious? What a power of friendship.
Not just that, you also have a skill in drawings etc .
Today, I joined the host of heaven to celebrate your new phase of life. They said life begins at forty therefore today is a starting point for your life. There are more grounds to be conquered therefore never you settle for less because greater things awaits you.
May this birthday brings freshness, and all round blessings upon your life and family.
You're celebrated and honoured sir.
