A beautiful village connected to farming.

Good evening to all my Hive friends,
Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting my husband's family home. What truly captivated me during this trip was not just the warm hospitality, but the beautiful and peaceful surroundings of his village. Nestled in the Yatagala area of Unawatuna, this charming village left a lasting impression on me with its deep connection to farming and the natural wonders around it.

Unawatuna is often known for its coastal beauty and tourist attractions, but nearby lies a hidden gem — Yatagala, which tells a very different story. This village, deeply rooted in agriculture, follows a rhythm of life aligned with the rising and setting of the sun. The landscape here is adorned with vibrant greenery, fertile lands, and gently rolling hills. Everywhere I looked, there were signs of hardworking hands and a way of life that honors the earth. Fields of paddy, coconut groves, banana trees, and patches of vegetables filled the scenery like a painting crafted by nature itself.

What makes Yatagala village truly special is its simplicity and the deep harmony between nature and its people. Most of the villagers rely on agriculture as their main livelihood, placing great trust in the land they cultivate. Their respect for the earth is clearly seen in the way they grow their crops — with care that avoids harming the surrounding environment. Even the homes here seem to blend naturally into the lush greenery, often surrounded by home gardens that offer both beauty and nourishment.

This visit reminded me of the strength and resilience of Sri Lanka’s rural communities. Yatagala is more than just a village; it is a living example of how closely people and nature can coexist. Until we meet again.

Thank you reading
Have A nice day.
Best Regards,

Samadi Madushanki .

Beautiful capture of the village. This reminds me of the place where I was born and agriculture was also the main source of income. The place is surrounded with lush greenery that is soothing to the mind and heart. We can have some peace of mind while strolling around the area and admiring its natural beauty.
