Street Art, Earlier this year group of young artists started a project painting the street walls to make the city beautiful and clean. The initiative become viral and suddenly every youngsters and paint artists were gathered in the streets of Sri Lanka to do the same. It was a non profit volunteer service, that's what it was made more beautiful. The nation learned a lesson from that initiative. Which is young people trying to keep the city clean. Now that there are no space for posters city looks amazing and very clean.

This happened in every city and almost in every street wall, so there's no location tagged to this photo, if you like to read more about this event you can read it here

Keels Super Market is where local always go for their grocery needs. Super market concept was very odd to people decade ago and was only capturing high end society. There was a misconception &marketing error where people thought pricing of the product in supermarkets are expensive. However keels took initiative to cater to everybody and things changed rapidly. This could happen to #cryptocurrencies as well, when people change their mind set.

Piyara Fashionis a clothing store and best in town for fashion trends. People in Moratuwa are more into fashion. It's a cultural thing with the back ground of Catholics.
