旅の径Gao Yu fisherman, unique landscape of Sri Lanka's southwestern coastline, iconic business card of Sri Lanka tourism. It is rumored that a long time ago, in the Galle-Merissa section of the southwest coastline of Sri Lanka (35 kilometers), fishermen without money to buy fishing boats, in the shallow sea area tree in the middle of the tripod, wading on the wooden stakes to climb on the wooden stakes and sit on the rack, in the way of baitless sea fishing, Waiting for the peregrine to hook the sardines in the shallow sea area, the harvest is not bad. From the shore, it looks like a group of fishers with feet on the sorghum, and the "sorghum fisherman" is named. The blue sky and white clouds, the swaying background board of coconut trees, the waves, the sparkling Indian Ocean, the bushes of wooden stakes, the silhouette of the hard-working fishermen... one blockbuster, became a compulsory course for Sri Lankan tourism. Today, fish - no longer important, swimming - is the hard reason for development. N points along the coastline, each inserted densely more than 100 wooden stakes, empty; as soon as the tourist bus arrived, more than ten fishermen climbed on the wooden stakes and sat on the racks holding fishing rods, sculpting; If tourists pay to pile up, try it, the most welcome... Tips: fishermen are sitting on the back of the sun, taking a clear photo of the face, it is not easy.Koggala44.8km from BalapitiyaFree
