Itinerary: Colombo - Bentota - Galle - Nuwara Eliya - Yala National Park - beach time in Amangalla in Tangalle
A hilly island blessed by nature sits in the middle of the Indian Ocean, enveloped by its wild waves. One of the most significant diamonds of the British tiara, this place became the home to the world’s best tea plantations, natural reserves, and Tropical Modernism - Geoffrey Bava's experimental architectural style.
Here, colonial mansions share the space with Corbusier-inspired villas, Catholic cathedrals neighbour Buddhist shrines, and giant monitor lizards and coastal turtles coexist with the leopards and elephants of Yala National Park. We invite you to visit the "Hill Country" lakes, taste the spicy Ceylon cuisine and learn to distinguish thousands of shades of green among the island’s stunning flora.
