As Sri Lanka emerges from decades of protracted civil war, it is now looking to take it’s position as a top tourist destination in Asia. I found it absolutely spectacular. Abounding with ancient Buddhist temples, highlands brimming with tea plantations, colorful local festivals, and spotless white sand beaches, there is an almost overwhelming number of adventures to choose from as well as excellent cuisine and friendly, inquisitive locals. It shouldn’t be too long before travelers rediscover this island paradise. Get there as soon as possible.
