| Why on
earth would you want to visit Sri Lanka.? And why not we say! Can
you think of any other country which:
- is located right in the middle of the world, accessible within
a few hours?
- has this incredible mix of races, religions, customs - always
smiling and friendly people (most speak some English!)?
- is probably the most bio-diverse island of it’s size
in the world (think Ireland or Tasmania) with beaches, mountains,
plains, rainforests, scrub jungle and even deserts?
- has perfect tropical weather year-round?
- Possesses the most gorgeous scenery coupled with entrancing
history and natural wildlife
– think ruins over 2,500 years old (many of them UNESCO
World Heritage
listed), think leopards, bear, elephant, wild buffalo,think rolling
hills carpeted verdantly with tea, think over 1,000 kilometres
of the finest golden sand beaches in the world, think colourful
festivals (the Kandy Perahera in July or August has 80 beautifully
clothed and illuminated elephants in procession interspersed with
torch-bearers, whip-crackers, fire-eaters, acrobatic dancers and
drummers, exquisitely dressed temple chieftains – AND THAT’S
JUST ONE!!)?
- has a superb range of accommodation from the most basic to
the disgustingly opulent, many of them featured in the glamour
magazines of the world?
- has an eclectic heritage in food – South Indian, Malay,
English, Dutch, Chinese combine to provide the ultimate gourmet
experience?
In short, there simply is no other country like it in the world
for things to do and places to see in such a compact little island.
