JOURNEY TO SRI LANKA
Dalma Magazine and Armane Travel share insights on why Sri Lanka is an excellent destination for travel during these months.
Starting from October, the scorching heat in the popular resorts of exotic Sri Lanka starts to subside, and tourists gradually return to places like Bentota, Hikkaduwa, Beruwela, Unawatuna, and Negombo. The sea calms down, the water reaches a pleasant temperature of +27°C, and the weather becomes favorable for various excursions. There is so much to see here. After all, it is no coincidence that Sri Lanka is often called the "Pearl of the Indian Ocean." The nature here is stunningly beautiful, with golden beaches, lush rainforests, and picturesque mountain ranges.
Another highlight of Sri Lanka is its rich culture and unique, delicious cuisine at very affordable prices. The culture has been shaped by centuries of influences from Buddhism, Hinduism, and colonial powers. Over time, the Portuguese, Dutch, and British have all left their mark on the island.
