SRI LANKA
A country revived and reinvigorated, more than 10 years have passed since the conclusion of the Sri Lankan Civil War, and as the world begins to discover the charms hidden away by decades of conflict, this idyllic south-Asian island is now a more attractive destination than ever. Tucked away off the southern tip of India, Sri Lanka boasts a unique marriage of religions and cultures, as well as picturesque beaches, mist-ensconced hills, rolling tea plantations, ancient temples ruins & awe-inspiring rainforests teeming with wildlife.
While Sri Lanka has already long been heralded for its unparalleled train journeys, this period of peace has also made it possible for new rail lines to be built into the northern part of the country for the first time in almost 30 years, as this region was previously said to be too dangerous for tourists to visit. With newly-introduced transportation & accommodation options befitting of this splendorous island retreat waiting to greet the outside world, there has never been a better time to visit this feast for the senses.
