Workation in Jaffna: the essentials
Jaffna was Sri Lanka's second city before the civil war, and its suburb Nallur was the seat of a medieval Tamil kingdom long before that. Today about 88,000 people live in this Tamil-speaking northern city on its flat peninsula, where the Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, the Dutch fort and the rebuilt Public Library mark the main chapters of its history. Reconstruction has continued since the war ended in 2009, and its traces are still visible. The food differs from the south, with crab curry and palmyra products at its centre. Ferries reach the offshore islands, the Northern Line runs to Colombo, and Jaffna International Airport is about 16 km away.
