BUCKET LIST FOR SRI LANKA

Ayubowan and welcome to Sri Lanka. Ayubowan is the traditional form of greeting which means â€œmay you live long and healthyâ€. The tropical island blessed with year-round sun shine, pristine nature in all its glory and most of all ever-smiling and friendly people, undoubtedly conjure up images of long life and health in the mind of any visitor. So, once again, Ayubowan!

"And always it is the same; the slender palm trees leaning over the white sand, the warm sun sparkling on the waves as they break on the inshore reef, the outrigger fishing boats drawn up high on the beach. This is alone real; the rest is but a dream from which I shall presently awake" â€“ so said world renowned British science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke who made Sri Lanka his home.

The Bucket List for Sri Lanka takes you on a journey through a fascinating and exotic country, steeped in history and culture and blessed with the abundance of nature. Within its pages is an insight into the land of serendipity, which offers tranquility and a chance to rediscover oneself.

Indeed, the breath-taking beauty of Sri Lanka has mesmerized visitors to this tiny emerald island from the time of that ancient explorer Marco Polo, who found it to be â€œthe finest island of its size in the world.â€ The country has a colourful past with a dynastic history spanning a period of 2,359 years and a colonial heritage of nearly 450 years.

The Portuguese, Dutch and the British found Sri Lanka (then Ceylon) to be a goldmine. The impact of colonial rule is still visible not only in the architecture but also in the food and lifestyle of the people, and is thus woven into the fabric of the Sri Lankan identity.

The Bucket List for Sri Lanka is a helpful guide to the visitor about where to visit and what to do while in Sri Lanka. The List covers historical locations with its fascinating history; the endless wide sandy beaches; things to do like watching turtles lay eggs on the beach at midnight or for the more adventurous, go white-water rafting. Those wanting to relax and rejuvenate, a short stay at an Ayurvedic wellness spa would no doubt do wonders to both mind and body.

A visitor can â€œshop till you dropâ€ for clothes, jewellary, shoes and much more at the many well-stocked outlets located around the country, while enjoying an enticing array of culinary delights on offer at the numerous restaurants. The many night spots offer pulsating music to dance your cares away.

We hope you find this first volume of the Bucket List for Sri Lanka to be an informative and helpful guide to what this island-nation - regarded as one of the most romantic destinations in the world, has to offer its visitors. After all who could know more about Sri Lanka than someone who was born, Bread and live in this beautiful Island.
