Jaffna is the northern capital of the Tamil area of Sri Lanka. Not long ago it was the center of the Sri Lankan civil war, but today Jaffna remains safe to visit as a tourist.
Jaffna town (யாழ்ப்பாணம்) is full of rich Tamil culture, a great place to hit the streets are explore the local food and flavors of town.
During this Jaffna travel video I walk around on Beach Road, eat a delicious Sri Lankan food breakfast of paratha bread and pol sambol (coconut garnish), check out the Jaffna Fort, walk past countless old building ruins, take a chaotic walk straight through the center of Jaffna town, eat a sour Jaffna mango, visit Nallur Kovil Hindu Temple for a 4pm traditional ceremony, dine on traditional local style Tamil Jaffna food, and finally taste for the first time a cup of thick wood apple juice!
Jaffna town (யாழ்ப்பாணம்) is an amazing town with a rich history and a very interesting culture. There are many things to do in Jaffna and a lot of places to see.
I hope you enjoyed this Jaffna travel video! Thanks for watching!
All footage is from Jaffna Town, Northern Sri Lanka, taken during the month of October, 2011.

    Ive started watching Marks old videos , just to see how it all began. In this video ive noticed His now slowly, 70%, morphed into the Mark we know today. his a lot more relaxed and confident in front of the camera, more engaging, and more descriptive of dishes. Ofcourse his signature expression is emerging more, but not quite there yet 😂
