Colourful, mysterious, steeped in
ancient lore, few places on earth, if any, hold the
same potential for serendipitous discovery. 25,000 sq.miles
in extent, 270 miles long and 140 miles at its widest.
You are never more than a few hours of pleasant motoring
from misty mountains or semi arid country to Sri Lanka’s
golden beaches. There’s a lot to be discovered,
savoured and enjoyed in this patch of the globe described
by writers in perhaps every language spoken from ancient
times, as ‘Paradise’.
