Tissamaharama

Tissamaharama was our gateway to the Yala national park for a safari (see next post). We were a bit naive to think that due to its proximity to the national park and its many guesthouses and hotels, it is somewhat of a lively and touristy city - well, we could not have been more wrong 😂 not sure if it even counts as a city, Tissamaharama was sleepy, with only a few restaurants and even finding a tuktuk was somewhat a challenge. However, our ‚room‘ was rather relaxing with its open balcony overlooking a small river, and the food that was prepared for us at the guesthouse was delicious, too! It was certainly a good place to be surrounded by nature and watch monkeys, many birds, wild peacocks and even a baby crocodile (see the first video). And a lesson has been learned (again): always google a city and do not derive any assumptions based on the information found on google maps 😉Baca lagi
