Puttalam
Puttalam (Sinhalese: පුත්තලම; Tamil: புத்தளம்) is a large town in Puttalam District, North Western Province, Sri Lanka. Puttalam is the administrative capital of the Puttalam District and governed by an Urban Council.
Situated north of Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka and north of Negombo. Puttalam is known for energy production, salt, coconut production and fishing. It has one of the largest lagoons in the country.
== History ==
The history of Puttalam dates back to the arrival of Prince Vijaya, nearly 2,500 years ago, when his vessel washed ashore to "Thambapani" which is located north side of Puttalam lagoon. The name "''Puttalam''" may be a modification of the Tamil word ''Uppuththalam'', ''Uppu'' means salt and ''Thalam'' means salt production zone, which evolved into the name Puttalam.
