Peerless coastline, spice gardens, fabulous gems and jungles full of wild creatures have made Sri Lanka a honeypot for empire builders and travellers for centuries, states Stuff.co.nz, a New Zealand news website, in a report published yesterday (3 Oct).
The writer advises travelers that Sri Lanka has beautiful boutique lodgings with exemplary service.
He also explains the Heritage sites in Sri Lanka stating that “Sigiriya is one of the island's eight UNESCO World Heritage sites and most of this embarrassment of riches is clustered in a central archaeological zone known as the Cultural Triangle. This was the seat of powerful kingdoms and some of the world's most beautiful ancient art - the sacred cave temples of Dambulla are extraordinary. Wild elephants roam here and gather once a year and vast, 1000-year-old water "tanks" and the ruins of the ancient cities of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa reveal a complex and fascinating history barely known beyond the island”.
