The small island packs in a continent’s worth of attractions and 8 World Heritage sites, all within a few hours of each other. The Ceylon Tea highlands, the Cultural Triangle, cradle of an ancient Buddhist civilisation, and probably the best wildlife parks outside Africa with leopard, elephant, bear and blue whale offshore. Not forgetting tropical beaches, great surfing and Ceylon Blue Sapphires, which have adorned the crowns of royalty for centuries.
Sri Lankan cuisine is very distinctive, using cinnamon, coconut, and myriad spices the country is famous for. The best Cinnamon is also grown here. Sri Lanka is one of Asia"s most underrated gems.
