Rev.Ault, landing site, Puliyanthivu, Batticaloa

The place where the Rev. William Ault landed at Puliyanthivu in 1824, is remembered by the monument called the 'Batticaloa Gate'. There is a statue of the reverend close by. You can get a lovely view of the 'Kottamunai bridge from this site. I have included a photograph of same.
