Sri Lanka: Pearl of the Indian Ocean and Treasure of Cultural Heritage

Located in the north-central part of the Indian Ocean and resembling a tear in the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka, known as "Ceylon" and "The Lion Country" in ancient times, is an island nation known for its multiculturalism, tropical scenery and rich history. It is home to eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the Lion Rock of Sigiriya, known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World", the Temple of the Buddha's Tooth in Kandy, and the ancient city of Galle. Although the country is small, it has a variety of landscapes such as beaches, mountains, tea plantations and wildlife sanctuaries, and is full of surprises, from the white sands of the southern coast to the tea plantations in the central mountainous region, and from tracking leopards in the Yala National Park to the grand celebrations of the Buddha's Tooth Festival in Kandy. As one of the world's top three black tea producers, Sri Lanka is famous for its fragrant Ceylon black tea, and the local cuisine, which blends Sinhala and Tamil flavors, such as curry rice and Kottu Roti, is even more memorable. This smiling country, with its warm people and unique charm, attracts tourists from all over the world to explore the harmonious coexistence of nature and civilization.
