Itâs clear why Marco Polo proclaimed Sri Lanka as one of the best islands in the world. Sri Lanka is one of those places where history seems to fade into the realm of legend. Sri Lankaâs second highest mountain, Adamâs Peak is said to be the very place where Adam set foot on earth, having been banished from heaven.
Evening in its primary meaning is the period of the day between afternoon and night. Though the term is subjective, evening is typically understood to begin a few hours before sunset, when temperatures begin to fall, and lasts until just after nightfall, when complete darkness has been reached.
The time that evening begins is arguable but according to the Oxford English Dictionary it is at 6:00 p.m. Another definition claims that evening ends and night begins after sunset. An exact answer would be the following: Evening begins at 6:00 p.m. and ends at dusk when no sunlight is visible. The time from sunset, when the sun sinks below the horizon, until dusk is called twilight. Night begins at dusk and lasts until dawn, when sunlight is first seen.
