Western Province

Western Province, the most densely populated area in Sri Lanka, is home to both Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte, the capital of Sri Lanka and Colombo, the commercial centre and largest city on the island. This part of the country is by far the most colourful, energetic and the hub stays awake, unlike the other parts of the country.

Urban areas and small towns, gorgeous coastlines to explore. The beautiful beaches of Negombo, fascinating canal networks and colonial-era landmarks make it one of the most popular tourist destinations in the area. This is the area where visitors can mix work with holiday and enjoy the surf, the sun and the sand while still conducting business. Cinemas, nightclubs and shopping malls have changed the face of its horizon and made Colombo a place of modern technology and high tech opportunity.

Uniquely different, Sri Lanka can most perfectly be described as over a thousand locations within a single destination!
