Sri Lanka is an island country in South East Asia which has maritime borders with India to the northwest and the Maldives to the southwest.
After a 30 year long civil war which ended in 2009 the diverse country is now opening up more an more for tourism.
The goal of this series is to give you an introduction to the country and the neighboring Maldives starting with Sri Lankas tea region, temples and the rock fortress of sigiriya in this episode.
After arrival we are traveling from Colombo to Kandy by train to take in all the impressive views along the way. In Kandy I go on a river excursion to spot birds along the Mahaweli river before visiting the temple of the tooth in the royal palace complex of the former Kingdom of Kandy.
The tea region around Nuwara Eliya is close to Kandy - you should go there by taking the train from Kandy to Ella. Make sure to visit a tea factory, too!
In the north of Central Sri Lanka the Lion Rock Sigiriya is definitely a Must-Visit. Another one is the Ancient City of Polonnaruwa and the Kaudulla National Park.
This part of the trip was executed within 2weeks by using tuk tuk, buses, boats and trains - following I list all the places I visited & Things to do in Central Sri Lanka:
- Mahaweli River
- Kandy
- Temple of the Tooth
- train from Kandy to Ella
- Nuwara Eliya & tea factories
- Dambulla
- Sigiriya & scenic flight
- Ancient City of Polonnaruwa
- Kaudulla National Park
I'm excited to share all my experiences in Sri Lanka & the Maldives over the course of the next 3-4 weeks with you. In the next episodes I will take you to the south and east coast of Sri Lanka - we will go on an leopard safari, will eat the local street food and enjoy the beaches in Trincomalee as well as Arugam Bay.
The production of this series was supported by:

Things to do in Sri Lanka - Kandy | Sri Lanka Travel Guide
During our Sri Lanka Holidays 2017, our second stop was Kandy Sri Lanka, which is the second largest city in the country after Colombo. It is a 2-3 hour drive to here from Sigiriya, and the top attractions include the Big Buddha, The Botanial Garden, the Temple of Tooth Relic and the Kandy Lake
We had only half a day here hence skipped the Botanical garden. Just Went to Temple of Tooth and spent the rest of the day roaming around the city center, the Kandy Lake and had some nice Food. Hotel See Kandy is where we were staying which has the best view ever of the Kandy Lake and is on the hilltop!
I have a travel blog and a 10 Days in Sri Lanka Itinerary as well on – froogalfun.com. Refer to it for lots of travel stories and itinerary.

Welcome to Sri Lanka!
This island off the coast of India has long been on my bucket-list for loads of reasons, like having the best safari outside of Africa, boasting eight UNESCO World Heritage sites to explore, and lots of lovely, gorgeous beaches complete with idyllic white sand and crystal clear water that's perfect for surfing.
In fact, for an island about a ¼ of the size of the UK, there's loads to see and do, depending, of course, on what you want out of your trip.
Coming up, I'm going to tell you about getting here, some tips on transport, then some stuff on food, money and language and some awesome places to visit.
So, let's get on with it…
We flew 10 hours direct from Heathrow to Colombo, which is Sri Lanka’s capital city. Flights arrive at Bandaranaike International airport, which is 30km north of the city.
Taxis are very cheap in Sri Lanka, and this can be the easiest, and certainly quickest way to reach your destination from the airport. If you’re heading straight into Colombo you can catch the express bus which takes about 25 minutes, but to be honest the taxis are so cheap it’s a no-brainer.
To enter the country, you’re gonna need a visa. Now this can be done when you get here, but, after ten hours in the air ..why bother with the extra admin!?
Get it done before you leave. Applications cost $35 and take around 24 hours to process.
Also, you’re gonna need to make sure that your vaccinations are up to date, like your tetanus and typhoid. Check with your GP beforehand.
What do you need to know about public transport in Sri Lanka? Well, in all honesty, quite a bit…
Public transport conditions aren't great, but are popular with locals as it's very cheap.
Buses tend to leave when they’re full, so for anyone on a schedule we’d give them a miss.
Also, trains are often slower and less efficient than simply getting a taxi.
My advice: take anything described as luxury or express with a generous pinch of salt.
The key thing in Sri Lanka is that your money goes a long way, for example our two-hour taxi from Colombo to Unawatuna cost 9000 rupees, which is about 40 quid, so for this reason we made the most of getting around with private car hire and tuk-tuks.
Hiring a driver to chauffeur you around is surprisingly affordable and, let's face it, way more luxurious! It's also a big timesaver which is a massive a bonus.
The roads are in surprisingly good condition...
...just watch out for the tourists, the cyclists, the buffalo, stray dogs, and massive lizards they all make it a little hair-raising at times.
We used Uber to navigate Colombo and Red Cabs for everywhere else.
Failing that you could always haggle for a tuk tuk, which are ideal for quick journeys. There are a couple of things you need to know before you start off. Number 1 always agree the price before settings off and number 2 be direct about where you want to go, don’t settle for any detours or any other places they might want to take you.
Anyway, up next, here are some of my favourite things to do in Sri Lanka.
Unawatuna is loved by locals and tourists alike, and with palm trees, white sands and blue waters, it's easy to see why it’s one of Sri Lanka’s most popular beaches.
Right behind the beach is a small shopping strip for souvenirs and restaurants...
… And Ladies, going topless on the beach is a definite no-no, and if you're a couple, make the P in PDA stand for PRIVATE, not PUBLIC.
OK, Newsflash!!! Sri Lanka has the best safari outside of Africa since the country has one of the highest rates of indigenous plants and animals in the world. Udawalawe National Park is a personal highlight of mine and home to some 200 different species.
7 Days in Sri Lanka | Colombo - Kandy - Sigiriya
Hey guys! For our Summer break, Steve and I went to Sri Lanka and spent 7 days there. We flew in directly from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and into Colombo. We wanted to do a whole trip around the island, so we hopped from one city to another from Colombo to Kandy, and up to Sigiriya.
Find out what happens next during our trip in my next video! I post every Sunday on my channel. Let me know if you love these travel vlogs, and I will sure do more.

To get to Kandy from Colombo, you can take a train. It's very comfortable, but make sure you get tickets ahead of time. You can buy small fried snacks to munch on as well. We met up with Pali our guide who is a former monk and soldier. We ate lunch at Garden Cafe. Don't be afraid to use your hands. Then we went to a wood shop and bought some Buddhas for our parents. A traditional dance ceremony followed and a visit to the Buddha Tooth Temple was worth it.

???? Kandy Food Market - Food Travel Blog - Sri Lanka Vlog Street Food - Meat Fish Vegetable Markets - Kandy market is set just by the bus station in the centre of the city. It is housed in a maze of market stalls around a central building with a green area and pond in the middle. This market does have a few units of clothing and tourist type things but is mainly based on the local market buying their fresh meat, fish, fruit, vegetables and spices. Worth a look if you are into seeing local produce but for sure there are better places around if you just want clothing and tourist bits. For us as foodies we love it. There are and you will here on the video crows or ravens all over the place in Kandy and they like to swoop down and grab food from the market sellers. A busy local market full of great characters and super vibes. Pol sambola (coconut sambol) is a traditional Sri Lankan dish made from coconut, mostly used as an accompaniment with rice, string hoppers, hoppers, and many more meals. Sri Lankan cuisine has been shaped by many historical, cultural, and other factors. Foreign traders who brought new food items; influences from Indonesian cuisine and the cuisine of Southern India have all helped to shape Sri Lankan cuisine. Today, some of the staples of Sri Lankan cuisine are rice, coconut, and spices. The latter are used due to Sri Lanka's history as a spice producer and trading post over several centuries. Kottu is a spicy stir-fry of shredded roti bread with vegetables. Optional ingredients include eggs, meat, or cheese. It was invented in Batticaloa and literally means 'chopped roti' in Tamil. Hoppers (appam) are based on a fermented batter, usually made of rice flour and coconut milk with spices. The dish is pan-fried or steamed. The fermenting agent is palm toddy or yeast. Hopper variants can be either savory (such as egg hoppers, milk hoppers, and string hoppers), or sweet (such as vandu appa and pani appa). Kool is a seafood broth from Jaffna containing crab, fish, cuttlefish, prawns, and crayfish. It also contains long beans, jak seeds, manioc, spinach, and tamarind. The dish is thickened with palmyra root flour. Short eats are a variety of snacks that are bought by the dozen from short eat shops and restaurants. These are eaten on the go, mainly for breakfast or during the evening. Short eats include pastries, Chinese rolls and patties. A popular short eat among Tamils is the mutton roll, made from tender pieces of mutton with potato and seasoned with spices. This can be a very spicy dish. Mutton rolls are served all over the world wherever there are Sri Lankan Tamils.

Savory hoppers are often accompanied by lunu miris, a mix of red onions and spices.
