Leading British travel magazine says:

SL ‘hottest’ new destination this year

*Lanka ahead of Britain, Australia, Abu Dhabi

*SL among world’s top five destinations

Sri Lanka is one of the top five destinations to watch this year, according to the world’s leading and most discerning and trusted monthly travel magazine in Britain, Conde Nast Traveller. The magazine’s travel experts have predicted that Sri Lanka will be among the hottest new holiday destinations for travellers this year.

Unveiling the list of destinations, the magazine reveals that: “One of the great joys of travel is the feeling you’ve discovered somewhere special, somewhere that’s all yours, for the first time - before the developers move in and the crowds descend.

It could be a new and unexplored region, like the Arctic Circle, or an entire country such as Sri Lanka and Burma.”
