Sri Lanka is a vibrant off beat gem of a place, somehow escaping most itineraries. The enchanting landscape of rolling seas, charming colonial homes, peaceful little hamlets and warm welcoming smiles of the natives, puts Sri Lanka on our list. The perky call of the birds carries through the air and while you make your way to the beach, you will stroll through a lovely cornucopia of flora, almost 2000-year old temples and unhurried pace of life. Shake off the tropical languor by surfing, diving, trekking through rainforests and sauntering about tea plantations.
