Sri Lanka, the second best place to visit in 2016

Sri Lanka was selected as the second best place to visit in 2016.  Australia pipped it to first as the best place to visit for this year.  This research has done by Condé Nast Travel magazine. Condé Nast Traveler is a luxury and lifestyle travel magazine published by Condé Nast. The magazine has won 25 National Magazine Awards. This is a great news for the  future of Sri Lankan tourism industry.

This magazine's  Traveler writer "Katherine La Grave" had this to say about Sri Lanka in the latest report:

Sri Lanka – Long overshadowed by its Indian and Maldivian neighbors, this tropical island remains affordable, uncrowded, and relatively unexplored. Colombo, the country’s seaside capital, is undergoing a cosmopolitan upgrade, while Galle on the southwestern shore just welcomed a new luxury design hotel, Sri Lanka. If that weren’t enough, the island’s timeless ruins and endless stretches of surf beckon.

And also Conde Nast Traveler writer " Sebastian Faulks" commented:

“It seems hard for Sri Lanka to make up its mind exactly what it wants to be. There is a sense of unrealised potential. Sri Lankan men are almost invariably distinguished-looking – if you stop at a remote way station, the guy whose job is no more than to push leaves about with a besom will look like a professor of politics at Yale”
