Jaffna Peninsula A Land Of Eternal Summer

Finally silent of the blazing guns that wrecked its shores for more than three decades

, the Jaffna peninsula is slowly opening its boundaries to the advances from the rest of the country and world. Almost an island, this densely populated area is connected to the mainland only by a narrow slip of land called the Elephant Pass. Distinct for its predominantly Tamil population and singularly spiced cuisine, its a land where poets have written of with awe and affection.

The deep garden greens, distinctive landscape and quiet suburbs are just a slice of a city that has been thus far forced into timidity. The low lying Palmyra trees and the northern lights that cast its shade over the land only add to its ethereal quality. Proud, industrious and highly educated, the people of Jaffna are friendly and open to share a story with. Added to the experience of less than perfect lives are layers of wisdom and understanding which has enriched these peoples being with a sense of determination and honor. Though at a glance the clash of culture between the south and the north maybe apparent, only a little time spent in this astounding land will show to you that it is still indeed a part of Sri Lanka. Rich in culture and home to a striking environment, even its ecological structure speaks a different language to that of its Southern counterpart. Mired with a divergent terrene and wild life, its a true travelers paradise.

Although travel by air only takes a mere hour, Sri Lanka travel is always most rewarding by land. From Colombo to Jaffna, traveling by vehicle takes a good eight to nine hours. Whether you are looking to travel on your own or with a group, its always good to be informed of a reliable Sri Lanka car rental agency. With over 30 years of experience in the industry, Malkey Rent A Car guarantees the highest quality and service at an affordable price. Having one of the largest and modern fleets of vehicles, its also the only ISO certified vehicle rental company in Sri Lanka.
