Both my girlfriend and I have always been extremely fond of hiking. So, climbing up the 1,200 steps to reach the top of the Sigiriya Rock felt like a cakewalk, especially because this was our first hiking experience together. Also known as Lions Rock, the top of this place literally offers a breathtaking view and we were all in awe of it until we were there. Since this place is one of the most famous places to visit in Sri Lanka, it was obvious that it would be crowded. But to our surprise, it didn\u2019t affect our romantically adventurous experience here!<\/p>\n

2. Exploring the heart of Kandy<\/h3>\n

Since our trip kick-started with Kandy, we were both game for exploring it to the fullest. From its world-famous Royal Botanical Gardens to the charming Kandy Lake<\/strong> that was adorned with peace, we saw it all. We also went to attend the cultural dance and drum show which was quite intense & energetic, more perfect for couples who have an interest in art and culture.<\/p>\n

Our Sri Lanka romantic trip<\/strong> gifted us with many first memories such as hiking and cruising through the mangroves. The Madu Ganga River Safari in Bentota is perfect all kinds of couples as it brings you not only closer to nature, but also to each other. After the thrilling safari experience, we went back to our hotel. Now since we knew that Bentota is known for its golden beaches and breathtaking views, we were quite enthralled for our beach dinner. It was a perfect romantic candlelight dinner exactly like the ones shown in movies, and nothing could have made our Sri Lanka trip more memorable!<\/p>\n

One of the best things to do in Sri Lanka for couples<\/strong> is enjoying an ultra luxurious staycation in one of its many swanky hotels. The Marin Beach Hotel in Colombo seemed nothing less than a paradise and we couldn\u2019t wait to spend quality time in its infinity pool. Witnessing the sunset together while having the locally brewed beer was an epic moment in itself. Not just this, but we also visited the National Museum, Gangaramaya Temple, and Beira Lake. All of these places reflected the true charm of Sri Lanka and the historical beauty that surrounds it. And irrespective of cliche a sightseeing tour like this may seem, we as a couple definitely had one hell of a time in the city of Colombo. So, imagine what it\u2019ll be like for you!<\/p>\n

No amount of words can justify what we felt while visiting the Elephant Orphanage in Kandy. Perfect for animal lovers, this place offers the much-needed break from the stressful life in the cities. There are elephants of all ages and sizes walking around you. You can click pictures, bathe them, and just see them having fun or spending a usual day. Besides, there are also a lot of souvenir shops along the road from where you can buy beautiful elephant figurines.<\/p>\n

Food In Sri Lanka<\/h2>\n

Sri Lanka has an endless amount of things to offer when it comes to food, both for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. The thing that I loved the most was that there was an entire ministry of crab. Apart from that, jackfruit, coconut, seafood, and an arsenal of spices are amongst the other famous local cuisines that we treated ourselves with. Kottu was my all time favorite. Referred to as Sri Lanka\u2019s hamburger, it is actually like fried rice served with spicy curry sauce. So, hands down, the Sri Lankan food is nothing less than a perfect blend of lip-smacking and mouth-watering flavors that are perfect for all the couples who love to explore the things that they even put on their platter.<\/p>\n

Shopping In Sri Lanka<\/h2>\n

I am pretty sure that there are tonnes of articles online that talk about the best places for shopping in Sri Lanka<\/a> and what you must buy from there. And while there are high chances that we often ignore such pieces, it was only after visiting Sri Lanka that I realized that it\u2019s a little paradise for Shopaholics, and even tourists who love taking back a small and sweet souvenir from every place they visit. We came across beautifully handcrafted jewelry, handwoven items, moonstone carvings, Buddha and elephant figurines, tea, and some Ayurvedic beauty products that are actually the best things to buy in Sri Lanka. All of this along with the other things are definitely a must-buy as they are offered at prices that you would happily pay!<\/p>\n
