10 reasons, why you need visit Sri Lanka:

Sigiriya Rock

You must climb the majestic 180-meter high rock, which, apart from the elephant, is one of the symbols of Sri Lanka and one of its greatest attractions. Lion Rock offers not only fabulous views, but also unique frescoes and remains of the royal city.

Rock Temples in Dambulla

They are famous for their amazing paintings, which can be found in several caves and have been created for almost 2,000 years. They will enchant you with their colors, shapes and mysterious atmosphere. Unique frescoes and sculptures depict not only scenes from the life of Buddha, but also the history of Ceylon.

Polonnaruwa

The ruins of a mighty city, centuries ago one of the largest in the world. Palaces, temples, walls full of sculptures and statues tell the story of the history and power of Ceylon. Incense sticks are constantly burned near the Buddha statues, and pilgrims dress them in saffron robes.

Old Dutch fort in Galle

One of the largest European strongholds in Asia. The fort juts into the ocean and the views from its walls are fantastic. Galle also has narrow streets, colonial buildings and wonderful restaurants. On nearby beaches, fishermen still catch fish using the traditional method, standing on bamboo poles stuck into the seabed.

The charming town of Kandy

Situated in the mountains, by the lake, for centuries it has been the capital of Sri Lanka. Its biggest attraction is the Temple of the Tooth, one of the most important Buddhist sanctuaries in the world, always full of pilgrims, where you will almost certainly come across some ceremony. Kandy also has charming streets, local bazaars and shops. One of the best places to buy souvenirs.

The huge Yala National Park

A great place to see animals (not only elephants), for almost 6,000 m2. km². A safari in the park is an unforgettable adventure, dozens of species of mammals and over 200 birds live here. Lucky people get the chance to see a leopard!

Horton Plain

A perfect place for trekking enthusiasts. Situated at an altitude of over 2,000 m. m above sea level the national park is not only an opportunity to admire unique nature, but also amazing views. Standing on a several-hundred-meter-high cliff, see how the fog rises from the mountains!

Traveling from Kandy to Ella

It is at the top of the rankings for the most beautiful railway routes in the world. The tracks wind through tiny villages, jungle-covered hills, over old gorgeous bridges, disappear into tunnels, and sometimes almost break through a dense forest. The journey takes place by local train, so you can expect the company of colorfully dressed Sri Lankans.

Tea and its plantations

Ceylon tea is known all over the world - taste it where it grows! At the plantation, you will learn the path from a green leaf to an aromatic drink. The plantations are extremely picturesque, climbing the Sri Lankan mountains to sky-high heights. And there is no better gift from Ceylon than tea...

Shopping paradise

From Sri Lanka you will bring not only tea and spices (remember cinnamon!). There are also plenty of markets and local shops where you can buy original handicrafts. It is also a land of beautiful precious and semi-precious stones - it is not without reason that Ceylon is called a jewel. This is where the most beautiful sapphires come from... Only in Sri Lanka there is an extraordinary blue moonstone, but rubies, topazes and tourmalines are also mined here.
