Sri Lanka is a colorful island that has an incredible amount to offer. The lush mountains are covered with fragrant tea plantations and there are plenty of rice fields and rainforest, as well as beautiful chalk-white beaches. It abounds in different species of animals – from peacocks and elephants to lip bears and leopards. The country’s culture and history dates back more than 2,500 years, but is still very much alive. Dance, music and theater are closely linked and many ancient dances and rituals are still practiced by cheerful lankes. A suggestion for attractions in Sri Lanka: Climb Sigiriya – “Lion’s Mountain” – and see the remains of an old royal palace at the top. Here you can stay for a while and admire the landscape. Visit the ancient royal cities of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa and the well-preserved cave temple complex, Dambulla. A 12 meter high Buddha statue is hidden here. Take a walk to the charming town of Nuwara Eliya and see the colonial buildings and beautiful surroundings. Get up close to elephants, buffaloes and maybe even leopards in Udawalawe National Park, Yala National Park and the Sinharaja rainforest. Sit back in Sri Lanka’s beautiful seaside resorts of Kalutara, Bentota, Unawatuna or Dikwella. Here, relaxation and swimming can be combined with a pleasant Ayurveda massage or a diving excursion.
