">The small tear drop formed island in the Indian sea has become the most recent hotspot for holiday makers. After the end of the thirty years civil war, and all of the travel advisories lifted, visitors just cannot bear to wait to head out to the glamorous island of Sri Lanka. The friendly and hospitable folks of Sri Lanka, in their turn, with hands folded and 'Ayobowan ' on their lips are prepared to make your vacation the most notable you have ever had. Tourism in Sri Lanka can, broadly, be split up into 3 classes. The beaches, the towns of cultural, historic and non secular signification and last but absolutely not the least, the nature reserves, don't be conned by the scale of the country. The small island is rich with places to go visit from all of these 3 classes. Join me as I unscramble the mysteries of Sri Lanka. The busy town of Colombo is the biggest in Sri Lanka. It is about an hour's drive from the Bandarnaike world airport. Just like other urban towns, Colombo is a center of activity. There are numerous places worth seeing. It being a coastal city, you can enjoy wonderful views of the sea with the crowds that head to Galle Face greens in the evening. If deserted beaches are what you are after, then you can head to other places, which shall figure later in my list. Aside from that, you may visit the Nation's museum, the Nation's zoological gardens, and the Autonomy square which was built to mark Sri Lanka's liberty from the Brit . You can shop your heart out at Awe-inspiring Town , Freedom piazza or Odel. It's not difficult to commute round the town, with buses, radio taxis and auto rickshaws called tuk-tuks regionally, freely available. Sri Lanka is not just about beaches. If you travel inland there are numerous treasures to be uncovered. If you're keen on the colder climate, there aren't a lot of places in Sri Lanka but Nuwara Eliya certainly would be one of them. Nuwara Eliya is a hill station found in the center of Sri Lanka, a little to the south. When Sri Lanka was under the rule of the Brit , here's where almost all of the English came for the ultimate summer getaway. The impact of the colonial time can still be seen in the town, whether it could be in the short name 'Little Britain ' or in the design or in the numerous activities you can dunk yourself in while there, eg sailing, golfing or pony riding. Another important side of Nuwara Eliya is that it's one of the most vital cities as far as tea production is concerned. So be ready to see unending zones of tea plantation on each side while you are approaching Nuwara Eliya. Remember to drop in on one of many tea factories dotted on the way there, for example the Labukele Tea estate. The people there will cheerfully talk you through the method of making tea from picking the leaf, to processing it, while they show you around their estate. Gear up to be baffled by the variety and flavours of tea you should purchase there. So far as holidaymaker destinations are concerned Nuwara Eliya has many. For people that are acquainted with the Hindu mythological classic of Ramayana, the 'Seetha Kovil ' or the Sita church would be a place of interest. According to legend, king Ravana of Sri Lanka kidnapped queen Sita from her dominion in North India and brought her to Sri Lanka. It is assumed it was here, where this church is found, that he kept her. There's a giant foot mark there also, apparently of Lord Hanuman. Even the direst non-believers will experience a bizarre and ridiculous sensation triumph over them as they stand there watching the lush green mist-covered hills, pondering what all this place must've been witness to for so many centuries. Just a bit before the Seetha Kovil is the Hakgala Botanical Garden, which is another, engaging spot to travel to For having more information about places to visit in Sri Lanka and sri lanka photos visit our website and obtain more information.
