Sri Lanka is a small island in the Indian Ocean that's alluring and full of spirituality, with the coasts bordered by beautiful beaches, a mountainous hinterland populated by leopards and elephants, and cold plateaus where the most famous tea in the world grows. But crossing the island you'll also discover over 2,000 years of history and culture alive among the steep wooded hills: historic cities, ancient fortresses, crowded temples, extravagant parties and colonialism. European influences blend perfectly with the rich Sinhalese traditions here, creating a vibrant and innovative cultural mix. Sri Lanka is a succession of emotions, harmony and balance, a triumph of colours, flavours and breath-taking landscapes full of the aroma of the immense tea plantations.
