Colombo

Sri Lanka’s commercial capital, Colombo, is a dynamic city that pulses with life while also preserving an old world charm.


Amidst this metropolis you will find everything from colonial buildings to temples and pristine beaches to recreational parks. Add exciting shopping, delectable dining and happening nightlife into the mix and it is easy to see why Colombo is such a popular tourist destination.

The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Anuradhapura for many centuries served as the country’s capital and today showcases a wealth of cultural sites.

Established during the 11th and 12th centuries AD, Polonnaruwa was the country’s 2nd capital and is seen as a popular stopover for those wanting to enjoy a cultural trip or two.


From remnants of ancient temples and dagobas such as the Gal Vihara to the beautifully adorned royal palace of King Parakramabahu, one certainly will be spoilt for choice.

Constructed in the 5th Century AD during the reign of King Kashyapa, the Sigiriya Rock Fortress is recognised as one of the most important cities of the Cultural Triangle and has an array of fascinating and ingenious features.

A hub which has been treasured by many kings since the 1st century B.C. Today an icon in the face of Sri Lanka, Dambulla Rock Temple houses some of the most unique drawings in five magnificently constructed cave temples flanking the golden temple of Dambulla.


As you enter the retreat look straight up to the gigantic Buddha statue glittering in gold over a land which today houses an important junction in the country's economic and cultural uplifting. Inside bserve the exquisite cave paintings along walls that shelter 150 further statues of Lord Buddha.

Matale

An agricultural zone in the Central Province, Matale seldom drops off the maps due to its remarkable contribution of flagship crops extending from tea, rubber & vegetables to spices. Spearheading the Rebellion back in 1848, Matale today takes immense pride in its story woven around spices.


Stop by the side of a spice garden - into which you will be most welcome for a eye-opening tour - and learn the therapeutic values of spices & processes over a refreshing cup of herbal tea. Or take a wander through the town streets, filled with voices and colours.

Kandy

Kandy was the Island’s last ancient capital and remains a prominent cultural and tourist destination. Home to the Temple of the Tooth Relic of Lord Buddha - a UNESCO World Heritage site – and Kandy lake, the city comes alive every year in July or August during the Kandy Esala Perahera festival.


Ten days of festivities mark one of the oldest Buddhist festivals in Sri Lanka, which includes processions of elephants, flutes, drummers and dancers.

Boasting a rich historical and cultural heritage, Nuwara Eliya – also known as ‘Little England’ – is admired for its immense natural splendour in the midst of tea plantations, coupled with unique architecture.

Trincomalee

Trincomalee is Sri Lanka’s major eastern hub and, despite a tumultuous military history is now a vibrant, up-and-coming tourist destination as well as one of the finest deep water ports in the world. The eastern capital boasts a rich ancient and colonial history, meaning the city has plenty to offer culture vultures of all varieties. For those wishing to ‘fly and flop’ however, Trincomalee is also ideally located for access to Uppuveli and Nilaveli beaches. The harbour is also notable for its whale watching opportunities and ‘Swami Rock’ provides the perfect vantage point to do so. Oceanographers attest this point to be one of the greatest in the world to observe Blue Whales, the largest mammals on Earth, and also Sperm Whales.

Passekudah

The tourist development in Passekudah was famously destroyed in the 1980s by the Rebel insurgents in Sri Lanka’s civil war. Now tourism in this beachside locale is set to rising from the ashes. Famous for its powdery, golden sands, Passekudah has been designated as a ‘Special Economic Zone’ to drive development. This idyllic stretch of Eastern coastline is prepped for the construction of numerous resorts hoping to take advantage of sublime ocean views and temperate bathing waters. Expect to see large-scale future developments of some of the most opulent resorts in Sri Lanka.
