I have been longing to visit Jaffna Sri Lanka for a long time since my childhood. My father used to tell me many stories about Jaffna. Since I started travelling around the Sri Lanka, I was eager to visit this place very badly after ethnic conflict being resolved. Fair enough right!!!! One day, 19th of March , While I was chatting with one of my good friends at office, Ari, I told him that I would like to visit Jaffna with him if he goes, as I wanted to go with somebody who knows about Jaffna.
We took our tickets 10 days before our journey to Jaffna. It seems that Sri Lankans are working on time now!!! I was confused, whether I have accidentally boarded into an air plane.
Yal Devi interior looks like an air plane and it was well maintained. Anyway changing is happening every where!!!. Yal Devi Express Train Inside. Very comfortable Seats. Yal Devi Express Train to Jaffna. In side the Train Interior. It feels like , you are in a bullet train.
You have to experience it to feel what I say. After passing the Omanthai station, I got into the footboard of the train to video the Journey. If they do not look straight at you or simile with you when you pass each other or meet each other , it does not mean they are rude or moody or angry but that is the very nature of Jaffna culture.
It is modern , Luxary , state of art station compared to other railway stations in Sri Lanka. Being a Sri Lankan, it is proud to see the development vested in Jaffna.
