Travel to Sri
Lanka - Couched in the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka has
attracted traders and travelers for centuries. |
Sri
Lanka's Ministry of Tourism and the Tourist Board expect to develop historic
Yapahuwa in the North Western Province of Sri Lanka as a tourist attraction.
Yapahuwa has been selected as the venue for the national celebrations of
World Tourism Day, which falls on September 27.
Yapahuwa was Sri Lanka's fourth capital and the area is rich with much

country from this site in the 13th century A.D. |
