Travel Lanka Guide - September 2017

Bu sayıda

Dear Visitor...
With the advent of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations of diminutive Sri Lanka with her giant neighbor China, the relationship between the two countries, had to take prime place in this edition of Travellanka. A long term religious and cultural exchange, commercial and trade exchanges laid the historical foundation for the establishment and development of a long term friendly relationship between the two countries. The connection forged on the Silk Route is still strong as China has put forward the idea to create the 21st Century Maritime Silk Route in the near future.
The 150th anniversary of ‘Tea Planting’ in Sri Lanka is celebrated this year. To mark the occasion the Central Bank of Sri Lanka has issued a special commemorative coin with the legend ’Ceylon Tea-Symbol of Quality’. Initiated by a young Scotsman James, Taylor, The Tea Industry today is among the top foreign exchange earners. Fantasy, mystery, romance and excitement comes a live when we discuss Ravana. Scholars believe Sri Lanka under Ravana figured good advancement in science, medicine and culture. Sri Lanka’s beautiful East coast with blue sea, coves, islets, dolphins, whales, surfing, is fine in September. Giritale Hotel, deep in the wilderness, invites you to a haven of peace and beauty.
Have fun!
