Naval Museum, Hood's Tower, Trincomalee, Sri Lanka.
A visit paid to the Naval Museum near Hood's Tower at Trincomalee Naval Base, Sri Lanka.
Naval & Maritime Museum Trincomalee
Hoods Tower Naval Museum | හුඩ්ස් ටවර් නාවික හමුදා කෞතුකාගාරය, Trincomalee (2018) - 2 of 2
Hood’s Tower Naval Museum is located inside the Trincomalee Naval Dockyard which is around 850 acres in size. This place had originally been used by King Parakramabahu the Great (aka Parakramabahu I) as a fort. He was the second King during Polonnaruwa era, after Vijayabahu the Great (Vijayabahu) to have unified Thrisinhalaya (ත්රිසින්හලය) or the three sub kingdoms of Sri Lanka; Ruhunu, Pihiti and Maya.
Reigning from Polonnaruwa, King Parakrambahu the Great used Trincomalee, then known as Gokanna, as his eastern port where he successfully launched a naval fleet to attack and invade Burma (now Myanmar) in the 12th Century. Since then, this fort had seen many changes and uses, notably with the arrival of the Europeans; Portuguese, Dutch and the English between 1505 and 1948.
There’s a three-storied building in this complex known as Hood’s Tower, thus the name Hood’s Tower Naval Museum. This is built on a hill commanding a 360-degree panoramic view of the Trincomalee Harbor and Bay (Koddiyar Bay) which had proven vital to the safety of the Trinco Harbor. Royal Navy established its British East Indies Formation at this location in 1810 in order to protect their trade interests in the Indian Ocean. The commandant of this formation was Admiral Sir Samuel Hood and this building took the name Hood’s Tower since then.
At Hoods Tower, World War II vintage field glasses on swivel mounts are still in working condition and provide a good view of the entrance to the harbor. The huge gun emplacements and underground ammunition magazines that make up part of the museum today were first built in the 1920s by the British. The six-inch guns have a range of about 4km and could destroy enemy ships approaching Trincomalee. The underground magazines are impressive construction works with winches and conveyor belts to bring ammunition up to the surface.
In another part of the museum, the remarkable history of the Sri Lanka Navy up to end of the defeat of the LTTE Terrorists is presented to the visitors. Prizes of war on display include captured Sea Tiger attack crafts, suicide crafts and LTTE weapons, including an all-terrain vehicle.
The souvenir shop is a must to buy some memorabilia of your visit to this amazing place and the efforts by the SL Navy at maintaining this must also be commended.

Special Note for the Viewers:
I’ve done this video to make you aware of the beauty of this place and please don’t misuse this information in order to ruin it. I’ve spent so much of time/money bringing this to you so that you may enjoy it.
I also have a very kind and humble request to make. Should you ever visit this place, you’re kindly requested to adhere to the following in order to save our Mother Nature not only for the future generations but for the current one as well:
* Avoid careless/irresponsible/money-oriented/mega tour groups or organizers.
* Travel in small groups as Mother Nature can’t afford so many footprints at once. Stick to the designated trails or hardback surfaces at all times.
* Minimize the use of polythene/plastic and do bring them back. Please don’t burn them in the wilderness. Even organic/bio-degradable waste is harmful to the nature and animals. Please stick to the simple rule of “if you pack it in, pack it out”.
* Use reusable water bottles, plates and cups. Even paper cups/plates are harmful and take years to decompose.
* Remain quiet and vigilant. Don’t disturb the tranquility of the nature. Respect wildlife and don’t disturb them in anyway. Also be considerate of other trekkers.
* Please collect and bring any litter/garbage left behind by other careless travellers.
* Don’t light fires unnecessarily and do try to use portable cookers instead of using firewood when camping. If you must, only use firewood on the ground and don’t cut any trees for this.
* Don’t bring any plants back with you or cut any trees/branches unnecessarily..
* Don’t use soap/ shampoo when bathing in natural streams as they contaminate them and kill wildlife.
* Don’t do anything that harms the Mother Nature.

Sri Lanka Navy yesterday, (06 June) launched a passenger ship (A 543) targeting local and foreign tourists who are interested in whale watching in the Eastern coast operating from Trincomalee harbor.
The ship can accommodate 100 passengers for three hour and six hour journeys in the sea.

FALUDA Hunt in Trincomalee, Sri Lanka. ????????
I was in Trincomalee on a public holiday when everything was closed. I had no plans, just a piece of junk bike and a thirst for adventure.
I had planned to visit the Navy Museum and learn about the Sri Lankan Navy but that was closed.
After cycling around with nothing to do I remembered the delicious taste of the Faluda ice lolly I got from the Elephant House Ice Cream tuk-tuk / van earlier. So my afternoon ended up turning into a hunt for a good Faluda.
Faluda is a famous Sri Lankan drink made from a rose syrup, vermicelli, basil seeds and milk with a scoop of ice cream floating on top.
