"Who should pack Footprint - readers who want to escape the crowd." The Observer
Product Description
Sri Lanka conjures up images of white dagobas curving skyward, serene carved stone buddhas lying in permanent silence, elephants in parades glittering in gold, and beaches lined with pure white sand. Completely revised and updated for every interest, Footprint Sri Lanka offers all the information travelers needs to explore this lush paradise, including details on the glorious beaches and the seven UNESCO World Heritage sites. It features highlights of Sri Lanka both on and off the beaten track, illustrated with beautiful color photography and provides insight into Sri Lanka's rich history, culture and religions, covering the ancient temples, shrines and palaces of the northern kingdoms, and the tea estates and hill stations of the central hill ranges. 50 maps help travelers plan a route around the island, including color maps cross-referenced with the text and local town and site maps. This handbook perfectly demonstrates why Footprint travel guides are synonymous with discovery and adventure. Each guide provides eye-opening, accurate, and reliable information, ensuring that every trip is memorable, enlightening, and informing.
