Pasis (or Pasaja; in English Pasikudah / Pasikuda) - a seaside resort city, located about 35 kilometers northwest of Battikalo. This is a very popular holiday destination among tourists. Pacis and Kulkuda, another resort area, are located a few kilometers from each other, you can say, they flow from one to another and are practically inseparable and a little similar. The name "Pasi" is translated from Tamil about as "Gulf of Green Algae".
Pacis - one of the smallest population of the district of the district (and it belongs to the Battikalo district): there lives about 25-26 thousand people, among which is more (in general, almost all residents) - representatives of the People of Laracalla (Srinlasky Mavrov As Portuguese nicknamed them), which most of them are Muslims. After the town of Kattantkudi Laracalov community In Pasikad, the largest in the district (and therefore, the Pasikuda can be safely called the "Muslim city"). Although, of course, there lives a small number of Tamils (a person 600, no more) - they are mainly by the Hindus, so in the city the city you can see a couple of very pretty Hindu temples). There are among the local and tiny community of the Singalov, almost all of which are confessing Buddhism, but some are both Christians, so there are even in the town Church of St. John.
Due to the tsunami in the Indian Ocean in 2004 and the Civil War on Sri Lanka, the number of tourists has decreased for some time, however, after the end of the excitement in 2009 and the completion of projects for the restoration of buildings after the natural misfortune, the passage again became a popular tourist destination among such as local residents and foreigners. Why was it so loved by people this wagon? First, with its extended Coastline with shallow warm waters - Pasikouda Beach with light gentle sand , very beautiful. I especially like this situation to families with young children, because the water is better warm here, but to redeems, you need to go through a kilometer or more in the ocean (more precisely, the bay) - for babies to keep track very much. This situation is characteristic of the few places in Sri Lanka.
Today, the sausage is quickly becoming a favorite place for investors - again, both foreign and local, they are as much as possible to develop tourism on this interesting beach. True, strict environmental policies of the Sri Lankan government to some extent prevent certain plans for the mass development of the area (so that everything is still "paradise"), but at the same time the area continues to dying in a good direction, and the sausage today can Suggest your guest all the conditions for recreation. In Pasikuda, it is easy to get from Trincomalea and Battikalo on a good road by bus, but in general the roads in Pasikade are not so busy, and the situation in the city reigns quite calm. However, the Pasikuda and the city are difficult to call: it is rather a beach with my sleeve resorts and a piece of urban life. Most of the city is on the caulation - more precisely, on two capes that "look" a little in different directions. Here on them between them, away from the main road, are cozy for several First-class hotels , among which five-star expensive Sun Aqua Pasikudah 5 *, stunning (perhaps the best in the town) Amaya Beach Passikudah 5 *, Maalu Maalu Resorts & Spa 5 * and others. Hotels, in general, a bit, and almost all of them are very "lackers" (even villas for rent), except, with the exception of a simpler Kayjay Beach House and a few more guest houses. There are almost no traditional restaurants in Pasikad - in general, they dine and dinner are increasingly in their hotels (but almost no means no).
Entertainment in this area is not so much: first of all I want to just Hiding on the beach which we found out is very good. Some love to ride on the boat Lagoon Valaychchenai which is washes the city from the north, or go to the market on the shore of Valaychhenai harbor. Can go B. Parks Battikalo (Children's Park Pulianthiva, Eco Park, Cocos Park), visit Thoppigala With his amazing dense jungle and a lot of birds, to do diving (coral reefs off the coast are very beautiful, and somewhere else there is a sunken ship) or try fishing.
Attractions in the resort Pacikade are practically no, with the exception of the church described above and several temples, but you can easily find several interesting objects in neighboring towns.
Thus, the passage is suitable for those tourists who crave to the most relaxed relaxation, calm, silence and a little local flavor. Pacis is a great place to stay with children, as well as a resort for a romantic holiday.
