Camping

Image
Camping is a type of outdoor recreation that involves spending the night in a simple, temporary shelter, like a tent. Recreational vehicles, permanent tents, tarps or bivys, as well as no shelter at all, can all be used while camping. Typically, participants travel from developed regions to spend time outside in search of enjoyable or instructional activities. Camping differs from day trips, picnics, and other outdoor activities in that it involves staying overnight away from home. In the early 20th century, aristocrats started to enjoy camping as a pastime. It gained popularity over time among many socioeconomic groups.

Colombo City

Image
  Colombo is the capital city of Sri Lanka. And the country’s largest city in terms of population. It is a fascinating city located on the west coast and with a stunning harbor surrounded by white sandy beaches. A network of canals at the center of the magnificent 160-acre Beira Lake defines Colombo. While pursuing their degree, it is the perfect place for students to immerse themselves in a wealth of culture, history and entertainment opportunities. 2,000 years ago, Arab traders established themselves in Colombo, beginning the city's long history. The city has traditionally been a desirable trading port because of its significant natural harbor and fields of tropical plants and spices. Most of today's five-star hotels are located in the area around the fort, where Portuguese explorers first set foot in 1505. They quickly gained control of much of the coast. The Brookings Institution estimates that 752,993 people live in the Municipality of the Colombo Metropolitan Area, whic...

My favourite hobby

Image
My favorite hobby is aquarium. I have built a beautiful fish tank in my house. There are different types of fish. Among them are goldfish and platy. It's beautifully set up. Aquatic plants make the fish tank more beautiful. Fish get oxygenated air because of plants. I clean my fish tank once a month. When we are looking at the fish, we feel very relaxed. Platy Fish Platy fish are quite popular among freshwater aquarium keepers. They are lovely, simple to care for, and interesting to watch. The "old faithfuls" of the society of fish keepers are platy fish. They were first used in the industry more than 100 years ago and have since been enthralling fans. These freshwater fish are a great option for novices because of their laid-back personalities and all-around toughness. Experienced collectors and hobbyists also appreciate them because of the wide variety available. Because of this, the majority of people just call them "platies." These fish are members of th...

One of my favourite musician (Yanni)

Image
     Yanni, whose full name is Yanni Chryssomallis, was a prominent role in the development of New Age music in the latter half of the 20th century. New Age music is a typically unrousing subgenre of popular music that is frequently totally instrumental and used for relaxation or meditation.       Greek parents encouraged Yanni Chryssomallis to pursue music as a child, but they under no circumstances put any pressure on him to do so. He was raised in a middle-class family. He never imagined that he would eventually pursue music as a career; at the moment, he just enjoyed making songs. He competed for the Greek national swimming team while he was a teenager, breaching the age limit for the freestyle at 14. He moved to the United States at the age of 18 to enroll in the University of Minnesota, where he earned a psychology degree before graduating in 1976. He didn't start concentrating on music till after graduation.      The instrumental album...

Sigiriya Rock Fortress

Image
         In the northern Matale District in the Central Province of Sri Lanka, close to the town of Dambulla, is the ancient rock stronghold known as Sigiriya or Sinhagiri, also known as the Lion Rock. It is a significant historical and archaeological location that is dominated by a 180 m (590 ft) tall rock column. It's possible that people have lived in the vicinity of Sigiriya from prehistoric times. There is no doubt that Buddhist monks and ascetics lived in the numerous rock shelters and caves around as early as the third century BC. The Aligala rock shelter to the east of Sigiriya Rock is the earliest indication of human settlement there, showing that the area was inhabited almost 5,000 years ago during the Mesolithic Period. Up to the fourteenth century, it was utilized as a Buddhist monastery. Today, Sigiriya is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. One of the outstanding instances of ancient city layout still exists today.           ...
