Koattey

It's a beautiful place. A preserved place. A place undisturbed by the sheer population. Located in Addu City, Koattey is a natures reserve. It is at the Nothern End of the City with a total area of 16 hectres which is roughly 1.2km. This place is quite rich in Biodiversity. Here you will find a organisms taking shelter in their own habitat. It's evergreen and visiting this place will leave you breathless as there are few places on this Earth where human settlement hasn't reached. I, myself was mesmerized by this place. There are 25 species of plants alone in this place. Fishes like Tilapia could be found in the reefs.
The famous " Ranin Hanaa Fenganda"

There's a pond called Ranin Hanaa Fenganda  in which " Fairies " used to take shower in early days. This water is of a pale yellow colour which is quite amusing. I have been in this water, and yes it's of pale yellow- green colour! Around this pond there are coconut palms which adds beauty.

Species of birds could be seen flying happily in the air. Dhondheeni ( The White Tern ) is in abundance in Koattey.

If you happen to visit the city of Addu, be sure to visit this beautiful place.
