Top 5 Hidden Gems to Visit in Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is filled with well-known attractions, but its hidden gems offer a more authentic and peaceful experience. Here are five underrated destinations you must explore:
- Jaffna Peninsula: Located in the northern part of the island, Jaffna is a culturally rich area with temples, beaches, and delicious food. Visit the ancient Nallur Kandaswamy Kovil or relax at Casuarina Beach.
- Kumana National Park: Often overshadowed by popular parks like Yala, Kumana offers stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife, including leopards and elephants.
- Sinharaja Forest Reserve: A UNESCO World Heritage site, Sinharaja is one of the last remaining rainforests in Sri Lanka, home to rare species of flora and fauna.
- Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage: While not entirely hidden, it’s less crowded than Yala or Udawalawe and provides a more intimate experience with rescued elephants.
- Arugam Bay: A surfer’s paradise on the east coast, Arugam Bay offers pristine beaches, great waves, and a laid-back atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxation.
