- Final Pilgrimage of Siripada in 2021
|
2021 is an amazing year that I was able to pilgrimage 3 times of Sripada. It was due to the renovation of the Andiyamalathanna Toilet complex. However each time I witnessed different nature, weather, and surroundings. Also, I was lucky to see the Colombo in the morning and in the night at Andiyamalathanna Ambalama. Actually, we identified plenty of mountains and areas and noted everything to share in our Facebook Group.
This is the last visit for the year 2021 as we have completed our project. This time I spent 4 days at Sripada at the Andiyamalathanna and that was the best time that I have witnessed so many things and views. The other report which is the finalizing the project will show the photos of the rest of the days.
