The Island
|April 18, 2025
Once considered a hidden gem in the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka is now stepping confidently into the spotlight as a premium travel destination. With its unique blend of heritage, biodiversity, and warm hospitality, the island nation is attracting discerning travellers from around the globe, not only for its increasingly sophisticated offerings in hospitality, dining, and entertainment.

From the misty hills of Ella to the turquoise waters of Trincomalee, Sri Lanka’s landscape is diverse and spectacular. But today’s traveller is seeking more than just scenery. The new generation of tourists wants immersive experiences, culinary adventures, and spaces that blend comfort with creativity. And in Colombo, one destination is capturing all of this, and more.
Enter Blue Orbit by Citrus, Sri Lanka’s first and only revolving restaurant, situated atop the iconic Colombo Lotus Tower, South Asia’s tallest self-supported structure. A marvel of engineering and hospitality, Blue Orbit is quickly becoming a bucket-list dining experience for both international visitors and domestic travellers alike.
