Sri lanka was the first country I visited. It was so rich with its finest heritage - truly world class. I climbed the Mount Sigiriya and visited the temple at Dambulla... a very nice place, warm and hospitable people... how about you? what can you say about sri lanka?

I have visited many places in Sri Lanka. The key places that you should visit are Sigiriya, Anauradaphura, Pollanaruwa and Kandy. Did you miss the Kandy Perehara. It is an annual event in Sri Lanka. It is a pageant that shows the heritage and culture of Sri Lanka. It is a very colourful and unique event. A tooth of Buddha is stored in the Dalada Maligawaa temple in Kandy. Places that I have mentioned are very few there are so many other places to visit. You can watch the tea estates, waterfalls, the biggest rain forest in Sri Lanka (Sinharaja. The list is endless.

Hi, Sri Lanka was not the first country I visited, but I fell in love with it on my first visit. So much so that I applied for volunteer work as an archaeologist.I have lived on and off in Sri Lanka and just now moved out again after an almost 2 years stay. I also took my children this time (10 and 13) and they really regretted to leave the country.
Sri Lanka is a small island, but very rich in culture and a long history. Different areas have different climates which invited different solutions for problems. A diversity that is almost unbelievable for such a small area.
