Jaffna Kingdom Ruins
Description
Sankillian Thoppu had been the central entrance to the ancient castle of Jaffna, and regrettably, only the gate still stands. The icons of King Sankillian riding a horse with a sword in hand can be observed in the town. Additionally, the Rajamantri Palace is believed to be the manor house of an old minister from the king's court. Structurally it is a two-story home, but due to the place being ignored, the secondary story is no more. Portions of the staircase that led up to the second floor can be viewed from some house areas.
