Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka – the island in the Indian Ocean – attracts visitors with a fascinating mix of nature and culture: tea plantations in the highlands, elephants in the national park and Buddhist sanctuaries such as the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy. Whether you are strolling through the colonial flair of Galle, travelling by train through green hills or relaxing on the beaches of Mirissa – Sri Lanka offers unforgettable experiences.

The best time to visit the south and west of the island is between December and March, while the east and north-east is between May and September, depending on the monsoon season.

In Sri Lanka, you can pay with major credit cards in many places, especially in hotels and tourist facilities. For smaller amounts, however, cash in the local currency, the Sri Lankan rupee, is recommended and can be easily withdrawn from ATMs.
