Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon, is an island that lies in the beautiful Indian Ocean, south of India.
Budget holidays to Sri Lanka offers UK families the chance to explore this wonderful, exotic island. Many hotels offer cheap family deals to Columbo, the capital of Sri Lanka, where they can spend their time visiting one of the many museums.
Whilst in Sri Lanka it is worth the time to visit Kandy, the spiritual heart of the country, and home to a tooth of the much idolised Buddha.
Other places of interest in Sri Lanka include Anuradhapura, Polannaruwa and Jaffna.
