Set in the Indian Ocean in South Asia, the tropical island nation of
Sri Lanka has a history dating back to the birth of time. It is a
place where the original soul of Buddhism still flourishes and where
nature's beauty remains abundant and unspoilt.
Few places in the world can offer the traveller such a remarkable
combination of stunning landscapes, pristine beaches, captivating
cultural heritage and unique experiences within such a compact
location. Within a mere area of 65,610 kilometres lie 8 UNESCO World
Heritage Sites, 1,330 kilometres of coastline - much of it is
pristine beach - 15 national parks showcasing an abundance of
wildlife, nearly 500,000 acres of lush tea estates, 250 acres of
botanical gardens, 350 waterfalls, 25,000 water bodies, to a culture
that extends back to over 2,500 years.
This is an island of magical proportions, once known as Serendib,
Taprobana, the Pearl of the Indian Ocean, and Ceylon.
