Sri Lanka, the ultimate destination for budget travelers.


🌏The world's most "miserable" country, visa-free for Chinese citizens one year after bankruptcy! Once the ultimate destination for budget travelers, with scenery comparable to the Maldives, ridiculously low prices, seafood feasts for just a few hundred rupees, and landscapes that rival the Maldives, it's a must-visit in your lifetime.

Must-visit attractions include:

1. Sigiriya Rock🐅🏰: This massive rock fortress is not only a landmark of Sri Lanka but also a testament to ancient civilization. Climbing up, you can overlook the entire town of Sigiriya and the surrounding jungle, with stunning views!

2. Galle Fort🏰: An ancient city built by the Portuguese, with city walls, ancient forts, and churches, each exuding a historical charm. Strolling through the alleys of the ancient city feels like traveling back in time.

3. Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage🐘👶: This orphanage houses many elephants that have lost their mothers or been injured. You can get up close and feed the elephants, experiencing their gentleness and grandeur.

4. Negombo Fishing Village🐟🏠: A small town full of fishing village charm, where you can see fishermen going out to sea in the morning and enjoy beautiful sunsets in the evening.

5. Dambulla Cave Temple🛕🎨: This temple preserves many exquisite murals and Buddha statues, making it a great place to learn about Sri Lankan Buddhist culture.

6. Kandy Lake🏞️: Located in the center of Kandy, the lake is clear, surrounded by lush trees, making it a great place for photography and walking. You can also take a traditional hand-rowed boat to explore the lake and experience a different charm.

7. Yala National Park🐆🌳: One of Sri Lanka's most famous wildlife reserves, where you can take a jeep for wildlife observation and have the chance to see leopards, elephants, crocodiles, and other wildlife.

8. Mirissa Beach🏖️🌅: One of Sri Lanka's most famous beaches, with fine sand and clear water. You can watch the sunrise in the morning and enjoy a delicious seafood feast in the evening.

For food recommendations, be sure to try Sri Lankan curry rice🍛, fish and chips🍟, coconut water🥤, and local specialty desserts.

In terms of transportation, public transportation in Sri Lanka is not particularly developed, but you can choose to rent a car or hire a car for sightseeing. If you have enough time, you can also take a train or long-distance bus to experience the local transportation culture.🚗🚆

For accommodation, you can choose to stay in local homestays or resorts, which are relatively affordable and offer a better experience of local customs. There are also many good hotels near the beach or national parks to choose from.🏨

Tips: When traveling in Sri Lanka, be sure to protect yourself from the sun and mosquitoes, as the sun and mosquitoes here can be quite strong. Also, be sure to respect local religious and cultural customs!
