Sri Lanka - A Land Like No Other

>> Monday, May 18, 2009

Now the war is over and Sri Lanka is a completely safe country for anyone and everyone in the world.

When I was in school, everywhere in all the books it was mentioned that Sri Lanka is a beautiful country. But not seeing or being to any other country, I didn't know how beautiful it is. Now having gone to different places, outside Sri Lanka, I think I know how beautiful it is.

Everywhere it is green. Lots of waterfalls, trees, mountains, fantastic beaches, friendly people (completely opposite of Newyorkers ;) ), wild life, flora and fauna. Yes now I know how beautiful it is. When people ask about Sri Lanka, I used to explain about all these. But when they asked about war, I was shaky. Now things are different, war is over. No terrorists to be afraid of. Just one nation united under the one flag with Sinhalese, Tamils and Muslims. Sri Lanka is one of the best and safest places to visit on this earth.

Look at this video I posted sometime back and see for yourself. So when you plan your next vacation, include Sri Lanka.
And oh, my Sri Lankan native Tamil friends who never visited Sri Lanka. Stop protesting in all these junctions in US, Canada and Europe. Now its the time, go and visit your beautiful country with your friends.

(Oh yes, I will be there as soon as I get money to buy three tickets :D )

Totally agree. One needs to get out of the place, see how the world appreciates the little they have, to realize how much beauty goes unnoticed back here in Sri Lanka.
