  This is the remaining entrance of Jaffna Kingdom. King Sangiliyan was the last King of Jaffna. Ancient monument..

  There may have been a castle a long time back but there no visible signs of any of it other than this gate. Sitting next to the main highway everyone passes through it but no one really seem to appreciate it. Some form of a shelter is added to the top of the gate to protect from weather. Behind the gate is what I believe is a private property with a house so any clues to the hisptory are all lost. Gate itself is not very decorative but quite plain. Kings’ ministers residence nearby is far prettier and is still somewhat intact.

  Very old historic building for the Tamils and no one bother to maintain it, including the Jaffna council.
