From a temple that is home to the sacred tooth relic of Lord Buddha to the endless beaches of Bentota and Unawatuna, Sri Lanka has the best of both the worlds. When in Sri Lanka, you can’t miss on anything that this island has in store for you. You can visit the oldest ruins or the UNESCO World Heritage sites. Sigiriya, also referred to by some as the eighth wonder of the world, is a place of extreme historical and cultural significance, and it has to be a part of your itinerary.

You would love to witness the story in the frescoes of Dambulla and follow the Buddha’s footsteps to the Adam’s peak. The Land of Ravana is sure to bear traces of the epic era and those that have been discovered are now a part of the innumerable National Museums that have a different tale to tell. No tour to Sri Lanka is complete if you haven’t taken a walk across the Botanical gardens near Peradeniya that dates its origin in the 14th century.

Sri Lanka has ample to offer if you are a nature lover. The stunning beaches, the Yala National park, the Pinnewala Elephant Orphanage are just a glimpse of Nature that is waiting to be explored. And if that’s not enough, just head to the southernmost tip of this island country, where the ocean emperors will pay you a timely visit. The blue whales can be sighted almost all day long at this place, whose name is synonymous to the city of Gods, Dongra. While the beaches offer enormous scope for water sports, the kids can have a whole day’s blast at the E.L. Senanayake Children's Park. Thomas Cook’s packages try to give you a glimpse of this beautiful island. Apply for Sri Lanka visa now.

All around Nuwara Eliya you will see evidence of the British influence, houses like country cottages or Queen Ann style mansions. The Victoria Park, in the middle of the town, is a lovely place for a stroll or a picnic and is also good for Birding as you get some rare birds in this Park. Seasons may be absent elsewhere in Sri Lanka, but here you can read them by the flowers, which bloom in the spring (March to May) and the fall (August and September). These are the “seasons” when low-country folk flock to Nuwara Eliya to escape the sea level heat and humidity. Seetha Amman Temple / Asoka Vatika Overnight stay at a Hotel in Nuwara Eliya
