LIFE IN PICTURES: A Sunday market in Embilipitiya, Sri Lanka


The Sunday market sold mostly fresh fruits and vegetables.

It's in front of Walawe Ganga (Walawe River) where I took baths during some months I stayed in this jungly town which is also like a green village. 

It's a totally different experience from living in a concrete city like the capital Colombo. 

The spot is enlivened by the presence of wildlife such as peacocks, iguanas, monitor lizards - and tetras which nibbled my legs when I took baths in the river. In Maldives, we call tetras "fen meeru mas" in Dhivehi language.

Embilipitiya is located in the Ratnapura District of the Sabaragamuwa Province. Sri Lanka is my second home and I miss the place so much.
