#Trincomalee - #NaturalHarbour - Trincomalee, Round Trip | #ROUNDS TUBE

In this 74th Video, ROUNDS TUBE describes about Trincomalee - Natural Harbour - Trincomalee, Round Trip. Trincomalee District (Tamil: திருகோணமலை மாவட்டம் Sinhala: ත්රිrකුණාමළය දිස්ත්රි ක්කය ) is one of the 25 districts of Sri Lanka.
The Trincomalee Harbour, a circular natural harbour which the Thiru Koneswaram temple crowns towards the north, is referred to as Ko-Kannam or "Lord's Cheek", alluding to the cheek shape of Shiva's bull Nandi. The bay is also referred to as Gokaranna according to a Sanskrit inscription in Grantha script excavated on a doorjamb at the Hindu temple dated to Tamil New Years Day 1223 CE.
The harbour, one of the largest natural harbours in the world, is overlooked by terraced highlands, and its entrance is guarded by two headlands. The bay includes the first of a number submarine canyons, making Trincomalee one of the finest deep-sea harbours in the world. The harbour is being developed for bulk, and break bulk, cargo and port-related industrial activities including heavy industries, tourism, agriculture, etc. At present SLPA is in the process to re-develop Trincomalee as a metropolis growth center. Trincomalee is renowned for whale and dolphin watching. During the months from July to September, clear seas offer the perfect chance to explore the deep waters of these aquatic giants, the Blue Whales of the Indian Ocean. We can see them by having just a half an hour boat riding from Uppuveli Beach. The rest of the east and north, Trincomalee has been heavily affected by the civil war. The war killed an estimated 100,000 people. Several hundred thousand Sri Lankan Tamils, possibly as much as one million, emigrated to the West during the war. Many Sri Lankan Tamils also moved to the relative safety of the capital Colombo. The war also caused many people from all ethnic and religious groups who lived in the district to flee to other parts of Sri Lanka, though most of them have returned to the district since the end of the civil war.
It’s pleasant to spend a day or more learning the ins and outs of a multitude of coastlines and the fort and its prominent temple. All in all, Trincomalee in Sri Lanka has all the necessary elements for a great holiday with your loved ones.
