Sri Lanka, island circuit tour, whale watching at sea

Sri Lanka, an island nation in South Asia, but this still does not affect the fact that Mark Twain called it the pearl of the Indian Ocean. Ocean, forest, plains, mountains, all the beautiful scenery you can imagine is here A person's 18-day southern small circuit Suggested route: Airport-Kandy (transfer)-Dambulla-Polonnaruwa-Nuwara Eliya-Mirissa-Galle-Colombo-Negombo ( Tips: Since Bandaranaike International Airport is an hour's drive from Colombo and only a 15-minute drive from Negombo. Direct flight from Shanghai to Colombo, midnight flight, take the bus to Colombo city center, from there you can transfer to Kandy More than 4 hours, from Colombo to Kandy city. Attraction recommendations Temple of the Tooth The most famous in Kandy is the Temple of the Tooth, which enshrines the tooth relic of the Buddha Highland Tea Plantation Go to the highland tea plantation for free black tea, set off early in the morning to hike to the World's End on Horton Plains, New Zealand Farm Also went to the New Zealand farm to drink fresh milk, halfway through the walk I hitched a ride on the farm's milk truck Mirissa Took a bus from Nuwara to Mirissa for most of the day, went out to sea in Mirissa to watch whales, Unfortunately, only saw the tail fin From Mirissa to Galle, you can take the 950 bus around the sea, Along the way, you will pass Weligama Beach and see stilt fishermen without hooks Galle Galle Old Town, a seaport city built by the Portuguese in the 16th century British clock tower, Dutch church, Portuguese fortress, The Galle to Colombo section is the train on the sea Only a few meters away from the coastline, the waves will splash against the windows Sri Lanka transportation: Colombo to Kandy-01 route Cost: 125 rupees Kandy-Nuwara Eliya Train First class: 600 rupees Second class: 180 rupees Third class: 90 rupees Nuwara-Mirissa Bus (Nuwara-Galle 31 route) 300 rupees Mirissa-Galle Bus-350 route Cost: 100 rupees Galle-Colombo Train Second class: 180 rupees Colombo-Negombo Bus Cost: 56 rupees Negombo-Airport Bus Cost: 35 rupees Sri Lankan cuisine: chickpea fritters, hopper, seafood, mango, avocado, king coconut, passion fruit, black tea, curry rice Accommodation: Here I recommend two particularly good places to stay Nuwara: view lake holiday home Galle: river park inn
