Keerimalai – Sober Ceylon

In the Northern region of Sri Lanka lies the stunning coastal spot of Keerimalai, boasting both ancient temples and therapeutic springs. The allure of the town’s cultural and scenic offerings have made it a frequented tourist attraction.

Keerimalai Springs are a renowned healing pool, nestled in a sea of rocky walls, that offers many visitors to its freshwater waters a cure for their ailments and diseases. All across the far-reaching country, people gather here for its experiential, curative powers, seeking solace and peace amidst the waves of the serene ocean. Such a singular attraction, with its magical, alluring properties, continues to draw hopeful souls to its sacred springs, relieving them of both mental and physical pain.

Another attraction of Keerimalai is the Naguleswaram Temple, which is one of the oldest Hindu temples in Sri Lanka. The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva, and has a history that dates back to over 2000 years. The temple was destroyed by the Portuguese in the 16th century, but was rebuilt by the locals in the 19th century. The temple is also known for its annual festival, which attracts thousands of devotees and pilgrims.

Keerimalai is also a place of historical significance, as it was the site of a major battle during the Sri Lankan Civil War. In 1990, the Sri Lankan Army launched an offensive against the Tamil Tigers, who were occupying Keerimalai and other parts of Jaffna Peninsula. The battle lasted for several days, and resulted in heavy casualties on both sides. Today, Keerimalai is a peaceful and serene place, where visitors can pay their respects to the fallen soldiers and civilians.

Keerimalai is a must-visit place for anyone who wants to explore the northern part of Sri Lanka. It offers a unique combination of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and historical significance. It is a place where you can enjoy the sun, the sea, and the springs, while learning about the past and present of this island nation.
