My Beautiful Village.

   My village is Karandana. There was a "Karanda Forest" in the past. After the name "Karanda Vana", became "Karandana". It is located in Rathnapura District in the Sabaragamuwa Province. It is approximately 12km s away from Rathnapura.

   My village is famous for gems, rubber, tea, paddy cultivation and vegetable cultivation. So there are gem mines, beautiful tea estates, rubber estates, paddy fields and vegetable plantations in my village. Many of our villagers are engaged in these industries.


   There are also beautiful mountain ranges , streams and pure water that enhance the beauty of the village.  "Kalatuwawa Reservoir" is one of them. I went to see it with friends every school vacation. "Kalu River" is falling, right side of the village.


   Karandna Primary School and Sri Jinarathana Maha Vidyalaya are the two main schools in my village. In addition, the temple, sub post office, shops and bakery are the main places in my village. The village also has a good transport service. Our Route Number is 449.

   Karandana is a small village. But it is a fascinating place to live and I like it very much.

A Happy Holiday

Thisari, Senuri, Chamidu, Mohan, my sisters and I are a group of friends. We have a brotherhood that goes beyond friendship. So one day we decided to go for a swim in the stream around the house.  It's called "Ali Dola".  We went to the place on foot. Thissari's mother was also present for our protection. By the end of the rainy season, the water of the stream was very clean and the whole stream was full of water.  So we went for a swim that day very impatiently.  It has a large rocky plateau. First we took photos with that beautiful view. Then we started having fun and bathing. It took four or five hours. Gradually the hunger increased. Then I remembered home-cooked Cassava and Chilli Paste. It was a very clear day. So the sun was shining well on the rock. We were so hungry. We ate Cassava in wet clothes. At that time our food was like royal food to us. We all ate and sat on the rock and talked.  After a while we left there to return home.  We picked h...
