Nilu food city

3.0(9 reviews)

About

When in Sri Lanka, Nilu food city is the local business at 583 Colombo - Galle - Hambantota - Wellawaya Rd in Hikkaduwa. A 3 out of 5 average across nine reviews places it among the smaller grocery stops on the south coast. Reaching it from the main resorts and towns is practical because buses serve most routes and three-wheelers handle short trips, with traffic driving on the left.

The Hikkaduwa address puts it on the main coastal road, a stretch that carries traffic between Colombo and Galle. As a supermarket, Nilu food city supplies everyday groceries and household goods to residents and passing visitors. One photo accompanies the listing.

Blue whales and dolphins are seen off the south coast, and sea turtles nest on several beaches nearby. The southwest monsoon brings rain from about May to September, and the northeast monsoon from October to January, so the two halves of the year differ sharply. The hill country in central Sri Lanka is cooler and wetter than the coastal plains. The island was known as Ceylon until 1972 and gained independence in 1948, with ancient cities at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa.
