Day 2: Colombo, Sri Lanka to Kandy City Centre (2)

The construction workers were working in front of the market. But what's interesting is that they were working on it without a fence. What I felt in Sri Lanka was that people have good eyesight and they wear a pair of flip flops every day. Korea should be more careful because it is a country where the personal principle is applied. Or maybe I'm the only one who's so sensitive about this.

There are many bags, but they are all fake. And it's dirty because there's a lot of dust on it. Of course because it's on display outside for 24 hours a day. Don't buy fakes. Buying fakes is a crime, and selling fakes is a crime too.

Stepping out of the authentic market and walking a little upward, you will see a shopping mall-like building. Bag, shoes, clothes, hats, chargers, etc. There was a lot of stuff, but there wasn't a price tag at all. You really need to be careful when you visit a store without a price tagI could see a lot of people from the West. I heard that Westerners like to travel to Asia. Sri Lankan merchants know they have a lot of money and try to cheat.

Many Sri Lankan merchants spoke Korean, butI thought it was more foolish to buy things at a stupid price simply because they knew how to speak Korean. Frankly, there was no what I wanted to buy specially. I wanted to buy something that represents Sri Lanka at the proper price. But the merchants tried to sell me a T-shirt for $50 = 8,000 lkr, so I just decided not to buy it.

Phone Chager

I kept going around the market to buy a phone charger, but there was no phone charger and there was a phone 'CHAGER' so I did not buy it. If you look like a foreigner and not a SriLankan, you need to be careful when look aroundMany merchants will be talking to you to sell just because you are a foreigner.

Since English is not my mother tongue,there may be many wrong parts in the article. If you find the wrong point, let me know via comment. Thank you. If there is anyone who wants me to write in Korean, please let me know. I am studying English while writing in English. So please understand.
