The island of Sri Lanka is a paradise like no other, and those who visit each year leave with stories of stunning vistas. Plan your next trip to this amazing island to get your fill of the beauty Sri Lanka has to offer.
What is the climate like on the hillside?
The weather on the hillside can at times, drop to as low as -2 degrees Celsius after sunset. During your visit to Sri Lanka, tours conducted by travel companies such as Walkers Tours shouldn’t be attempted without packing both sweaters and beach clothes.
The city of Kandy awaits
Sri Lankan Buddhists still consider Kandy to be their spiritual home. The city of Kandy boasts two remarkable religious landmarks: a white Buddha statue perched high in the hills overlooking the city and the gold-domed Temple of the Tooth at the lake’s edge.
The highest point in the hill country
Several towering mountains rise abruptly from the foot of Piduruthalagala, making for breathtaking excursions in both a literal and figurative sense.
The Peradeniya Gardens
Another city attraction, the Peradeniya botanical gardens may be found not far from the city centre. It’s home to a dizzying mix of native and exotic species, all nestled peacefully alongside Sri Lanka’s longest river, the Mahaweli Ganga.
