A ferry journey to the Island of Nagadeepa Temple

To the south of Jaffna City lies 3 islands once connected by boats.  Since the end of the Civil War, they are now joined by causeways (though not in the best of conditions for vehicles).


We took the causeways as far as we could go, across Kayts and past the old, quiet villages on Punkudutivu. At the end of the final road, we boarded an old wooden ferry to our final destination - the island temple of Nagadeepa.






Photography & video is prohibited inside the temple...so 2 quick snapshots on the way out the door.
