Reaching the site involves travelling through the island's interior, and the main resorts and towns along the coast are connected by road.

Ancient cities at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa lie elsewhere on the island, part of its long recorded history.
Sri Lanka, known as Ceylon until 1972, gained independence in 1948 and carries a mix of cultural influences. Theravada Buddhism is the main religion, and full-moon Poya days are public holidays, so travel dates can align with local observances. Coconut, sambol and curry leaves flavour the cooking, while Ceylon tea comes from the central highlands. Asian elephants, sloth bears and leopards live in national parks including Yala and Wilpattu.
