Kothmale Raja Pihilla (Ranamune pihilla) is situated in village of Kothmale in the central highlands of Sri Lanka. It is known as the royal bathing site which was used by one of the greatest kings of Sri Lanka, Dutugemunu. Dutugemunu, as a prince Dutugamunu had fled from the Ruhunu kingdom after angering his father, King Kavantissa. The prince had come to Kothmale and lived there for 17 years.

 🙂 Travel to Sembuwatta Lake❤️              I had heard of Sembuwatta.Sembuwatta is one of my favorite places to visit.It is located in the Matale area.I was able to visit it as I pleased.From Matale you have to climb a large mountain to reach there.            It was a very cold environment there.There was a lake built on the top of the mountain .It was a beautiful environment. On one side of the lake is a finesse forest. On the other side is a tea eastate.             Its a beautiful place with a cool climate.This beautiful place has attracted many local and foreign tourists.I am afraid that its beauty will be lost due to tourism.If so, its beauty will be lost.I was delighted to see the place around the lake.I think it's so wonderful to be able to go there again .

🙂 A remedy for stress🙂              I used to do various things to reduce the stress on my mind during busy days.Drawing can be taken as something I do to clear the mind like that.                  I'm not good at drawing images that come to my mind.I don't even have the ability to draw.I do it for mental satisfaction.Most of the time I used to watch easy pencil arts on youtube.The small arts in it draw me to the painting. It's important to clear the mind .I smile when I see some of the pictures I have drawn.In fact, they seem to be hand-drawn by someone who does not know how to draw.But I enjoy it.Drawing is a better way to forget about a really busy life.I will continue to do so for my own self-satisfaction.
