Impressions of Sri Lanka


It takes a lot of patience -- and balance -- to be a pole fisherman.
In spite of the political unrest in the north of this island, tourists will find Colombo, Kandy and the south-west coast of the island an absolute delight, and safer than many destinations in other parts of the world that today’s tourists head for.

A land of ancient cultures and traditions with excellent hotels and facilities for the visitor, the article takes the reader to Colombo, and then to Kandy and the south-west coast of the island, visiting ancient temples and exploring Sri Lanka’s former capital, coast and countryside.
