Exploring the Village Side of SRI LANKA 🇱🇰 | Buddhist Temples, Sri Lankan Street Food, & Shopping

In today’s video, we will spend the day exploring a Village in Sri Lanka called Nochiyagama, where my friend grew up! We will visit a popular Buddhist Temple, eat local Sri Lankan street food, go shopping, and learn about the culture! The temple that we explore today was one of the most unique temples I have ever been to and it is a hidden gem! There is not much information online about it, so I was very lucky to have the opportunity to visit such a rare place!

I spend hours editing these videos for you guys, so please give it some love, leave a comment, share it with your friends, and subscribe to follow our journey as we travel full time and show you every bit of it! Love you!!
