Join us on a wide-ranging, two-week adventure in Sri Lanka. It is a shining gem of a destination in the Indian Ocean, and is rich in culture, UNESCO World Heritage sites, wildlife, birds, and stunning beaches. It offers world-class shopping for clothes, gems, and art, and its unique and delicious cuisine is rich in fresh seafood and vegetables.
See Sri Lank's North Central Heritage Cities, home to five UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa, Sigiriya, Dambulla Cave Temple, and Kandy (including Temple of the Tooth, another world heritage site), which are rich in ancient architecture and religious monuments. A visit to a typical village to meet local families, and a lunch at a women's cooperative. In Kandy, we plan to visit the national botanical gardens. Visit a spice market, a gem museum.
