Dutch Canal

We stayed in the lagoon for an afternoon, the scenery was very beautiful, and the lagoon could be played with the Dutch Canal, because the Dutch Canal is connected to the lagoon. The canal is not beautiful, even the water is quite turbid, but you can experience the life of the Sri Lankan people here.

The Dutch canal has been around since colonial times, and the canal is still one of the main sports passages in the area, and it is worth walking around, you can experience the water life of the locals.

Where the name of the Dutch canal came from is really unknown, only know that the river is a relatively clean river in Negombo, there are basically no tourists here, but there is a bus station nearby, and it must pass by!

I was dropped off at the viewpoint. it didn’t match up to the online pictures, it had a lot of trash laying around. I took a walk along the sidewalk.

The Dutch canal was dug by Dutch people, so it was named after it. It used to be a busy river, but now it is not as busy as in the past. The river is not wide, and it is estimated that there are six small boats in parallel. Standing on the bridge, I saw a small boat docked on the shore, which is very suitable for taking pictures.

Orange Netherlands - The Netherlands is a kingdom where the Queen is the head of state, and her family has ruled the country for hundreds of years. The Queen's family name is Orange, which means orange in Dutch. Dutch people love their queens and royals, so orange is a show of love for the country and royal family. Over time it has become the national color of the Netherlands. Some people say that the tulips in the Dutch painting are orange
