If<\/span> desired<\/span>, you can<\/span> not<\/span> go down<\/span> on foot<\/span> in<\/span> the opposite<\/span> direction<\/span>,<\/span> but<\/span> fly<\/span> with<\/span> the breeze<\/span> on<\/span> a zipline<\/span> –<\/span> extremely<\/span> beautiful<\/span> pleasure<\/span> and<\/span> unforgettable<\/span> impressions<\/span>!<\/span> At<\/span> the end<\/span> of the day<\/span>, we check<\/span> into<\/span> a hotel<\/span> in<\/span> the mountains<\/span> to<\/span> meet<\/span> the fascinating<\/span> dawn<\/span> early<\/span> the<\/span> next<\/span> morning<\/span> and<\/span> continue<\/span> our<\/span> fascinating<\/span> journey<\/span> through<\/span> the center<\/span> of the island<\/span>.<\/span> On<\/span> this<\/span> day<\/span>, we will take a<\/span> train<\/span> ride<\/span> among<\/span> the mountains<\/span>,<\/span> take<\/span> many<\/span> photos<\/span> from<\/span> the open<\/span> doors<\/span> of the carriages<\/span> of a moving<\/span> train<\/span> and<\/span> find ourselves<\/span> in<\/span> the city<\/span> of Nuwara<\/span> Eliya<\/span>.<\/span> “<\/span>Little<\/span> England<\/span>“<\/span> is what the inhabitants<\/span> of the island<\/span> call<\/span> this<\/span> place<\/span>,<\/span> because<\/span> it<\/span> was here<\/span> that the British<\/span> colonialists<\/span> once<\/span> settled<\/span>.<\/span> This<\/span> is the<\/span> highest mountain<\/span> city<\/span> in Sri<\/span> Lanka<\/span>,<\/span> and<\/span> there<\/span> we<\/span> can<\/span> not<\/span> only<\/span> enjoy<\/span> the scenery<\/span> of the mountain<\/span> hills<\/span>,<\/span> but<\/span> also<\/span> visit<\/span> tea<\/span> plantations<\/span>,<\/span> harvest<\/span> leaves<\/span> with our own<\/span> hands<\/span> and<\/span> even<\/span> visit<\/span> a factory<\/span> and<\/span> learn<\/span> the secrets<\/span> of producing<\/span> everyone’s favorite<\/span> drink<\/span>.<\/span> At<\/span> the end<\/span> of the tour<\/span>, the<\/span> most fearless<\/span> will be able<\/span> to climb<\/span> the<\/span> 48<\/span>–meter<\/span> Ambuluvava Tower<\/span>.<\/span> This<\/span> tower<\/span> was erected<\/span> in<\/span> 2009<\/span> on<\/span> the top<\/span> of the mountain<\/span>,<\/span> on<\/span> the territory<\/span> of the biosphere<\/span> reserve<\/span>.<\/span> Climbing<\/span> it<\/span> is not<\/span> difficult<\/span>,<\/span> and<\/span> at<\/span> the<\/span> top<\/span> you<\/span> will<\/span> find endless<\/span> 360<\/span>–degree<\/span> views<\/span> of the island<\/span>.<\/span> The diversity<\/span> of Sri<\/span> Lanka<\/span> does<\/span> not<\/span> end<\/span> there,<\/span> and<\/span> you<\/span> can<\/span> choose<\/span> other<\/span> excursions<\/span> to<\/span> suit your<\/span> taste<\/span>.<\/span> For<\/span> fans<\/span> of fauna<\/span>, there is<\/span> an opportunity<\/span> to visit<\/span> safaris<\/span> in<\/span> the Yala<\/span> and<\/span> Udawalawe<\/span> National<\/span> Parks<\/span>.<\/span> In<\/span> each<\/span> of<\/span> these<\/span> places<\/span> you<\/span> will be able<\/span> to meet<\/span> a large<\/span> number<\/span> of exotic<\/span> animals<\/span>,<\/span> both<\/span> reserves<\/span> are interesting<\/span> and<\/span> unique<\/span> in<\/span> their<\/span> own way,<\/span> but<\/span> in<\/span> Yala<\/span> you are more<\/span> likely<\/span> to see<\/span> a leopard<\/span>,<\/span> and<\/span> in<\/span> Udavalava<\/span> you<\/span> are guaranteed<\/span> to see<\/span> elephants<\/span>.<\/span> Sri<\/span> Lanka<\/span> also<\/span> has<\/span> something<\/span> to offer<\/span> connoisseurs<\/span> of ancient<\/span> architecture<\/span> –<\/span> the coastal<\/span> fort<\/span> of Galle<\/span>,<\/span> built<\/span> by the Portuguese<\/span> in<\/span> the 16th<\/span> century<\/span>.<\/span> Currently<\/span>, it<\/span> is one<\/span> of<\/span> the most<\/span> significant<\/span> structures<\/span> of the colonial<\/span> era<\/span> of Sri<\/span> Lanka<\/span>,<\/span> which<\/span> has been<\/span> included<\/span> in<\/span> the UNESCO<\/span> World<\/span> Heritage<\/span> List.<\/span> While<\/span> walking<\/span> around<\/span> the city<\/span>, you<\/span> can<\/span> not<\/span> only<\/span> get acquainted<\/span> with<\/span> fortifications<\/span>,<\/span> but<\/span> also<\/span> get lost<\/span> in<\/span> medieval<\/span>,<\/span> European<\/span>–like<\/span> streets<\/span> and<\/span> learn<\/span> their<\/span> hidden<\/span> secrets<\/span>.<\/span> The island<\/span> has become<\/span> the birthplace<\/span> of many<\/span> civilizations<\/span>,<\/span> and<\/span> to<\/span> get<\/span> to<\/span> know one<\/span> of<\/span> them<\/span>,<\/span> we suggest<\/span> you<\/span> go<\/span> to<\/span> the<\/span> heart<\/span> of Sri<\/span> Lanka<\/span> –<\/span> ancient<\/span> Sigiriya<\/span>,<\/span> the last<\/span> capital<\/span> of the kingdom<\/span> of Kandy<\/span>.<\/span> Sigiriya<\/span> is<\/span> a 170<\/span>\u2013<\/span>meter<\/span>-high rock<\/span>,<\/span> and<\/span> on<\/span> its<\/span> top<\/span> there is<\/span> a city<\/span> with<\/span> the remains<\/span> of a royal<\/span> palace<\/span>.<\/span> Climbing<\/span> to the<\/span> plateau<\/span> of the cliff<\/span>,<\/span> you<\/span> will see<\/span> the palace<\/span> gardens<\/span> with<\/span> pools<\/span> and<\/span> fountains<\/span>,<\/span> which<\/span> have been functioning<\/span> since<\/span> the 12th<\/span> century<\/span> without<\/span> electricity<\/span> and<\/span> are considered<\/span> an engineering<\/span> miracle<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is a staircase<\/span> leading<\/span> to the<\/span> top<\/span>,<\/span> which<\/span> you<\/span> can<\/span> get<\/span> to by passing<\/span> through<\/span> the paws<\/span> of a lion<\/span> \u2013<\/span> they<\/span> are carved<\/span> out of<\/span> the rock<\/span> and<\/span> even<\/span> today<\/span> they amaze<\/span> with their<\/span> scale<\/span>.<\/span> The choice<\/span> is yours<\/span> \u2013<\/span> from<\/span> which<\/span> side<\/span> the mysterious<\/span> and<\/span> exotic<\/span> Sri<\/span> Lanka<\/span> will open<\/span> for<\/span> you<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
