Udawalawe National Park

Udawalawe National Park

Udawalawe National Park rivals the wildlife reserves of Africa with over 30,000 hectares of dry zone game park and diverse herds of elephants, buffalo, sambar deer, leopards, and monkeys. Established in 1972, this wildlife sanctuary rains about 60 inches annually nourishing its wildlife and vegetation of forests, marshes and grassland. Because of dense vegetation, travelers can experience the spectacles of Udawalawe National Park in a 4WD open-top safari excursion.
Ella
Kandy

Kandy

The city lies in the Kandy Valley with its beautiful tropical plantations. The city is home to many attractively adorned temples and palaces including the Lankatilaka temple, which is decorated with delicate floral designs and paintings. In August, Kandy hosts an extravagant Buddhist festival consisting of food, cultural dancing, and richly decorated elephants.

Destination Guide
Negombo

Negombo

Situated on the coast north of the airport, Negombo, founded by the Moors, is now a predominately Catholic enclave. The architectural remnants of Portuguese, Dutch and British colonial years make it an interesting place for a stroll. Attractions include decent beaches, colorful buildings, fisherfolk putting out to sea in outrigger sailboats and even a canal dug by the Dutch in the 18th century. The city itself can be seen on a day trip from Colombo, or a stop on the way to the sacred city of Anuradhapura. Be sure to sample some of the fresh catches.

Negombo is a fascinating area to visit during Christian holidays. Sri Lankan Christians pay homage to the saints with an enchanting blend of Buddhism, Christianity and Hinduism. Negombo, however, is crowded with package resort hotels—the beaches to the south are better and definitely less crowded. 30 mi/55 km north of Colombo.
