Sin: මාළබේ māḷabē – Tam: மாலபே mālapē
‘Flower Grove’ WP, Sri Lanka
From Sin: mala,’flower’; and pē, ‘wood, grove’.
Now more famous as the site for the electronic trading systems company, Millenium IT, than for its flowers.
Because it sounds like ‘Malibu’ it has always conjured up for me the image of sun, sea, sand and surf.
