Northern Peninsula

Jaffna

Centre culturel du Nord, avec temples, excursions insulaires et un rythme nettement différent.

Introduction

Jaffna offre une atmosphère régionale très différente du sud ou du centre du Sri Lanka, et prend tout son sens sur les circuits plus longs qui recherchent l’ampleur géographique.

The peninsula carries layered Tamil, colonial, and post-conflict history that makes it culturally important beyond conventional resort travel.

Kandy

Kandy is one of the island’s most important cultural cities and works especially well as a transition point between the Cultural Triangle and the hill country.

Uva Highlands

Ella

Ella is one of the island’s strongest visual destinations and works best as a slower hill-country section between cultural travel and the south.
