Top tips for Zürich to Colombo
Superb Sri Lankan cuisine
Swap hearty Swiss cuisine for Sri Lankan lamprais when you visit Colombo. Lamprais is an assortment of side dishes and rice, all wrapped up in a banana leaf.
This popular lunchtime staple is great when you’re in the middle of sightseeing, as it’s served from street food vendors throughout the city. If you are missing the rich sweetness of Swiss chocolate, try Athirasa – a popular treat in Sri Lanka.
The beauty of Beira Lake
Zurich’s famous lake is a scenic body of water that offers splendid views – and the Beira Lake in Sri Lanka’s capital is simply beautiful too.
Located in the centre of Colombo, it offers a true slice of tranquillity right in the heart of things. Visit Seema Malakaya Temple and glide in swan-shaped boats – spending an afternoon in reflective bliss.
