Honeymoon in Sri Lanka — Galle and the countryside delivered everything

We chose Sri Lanka for our honeymoon and it was perfect for us. The romantic atmosphere in Galle at night, the drama of Sigiriya Rock Fortress, the intimacy of small restaurants serving pol sambol — all of it added up to exactly what we were hoping for.

stunning landscapes packed into a small island became an unexpected gift — something we stumbled across that felt made for the occasion. We had 17 days and used every one of them well. Some destinations disappoint when the pressure of a special occasion is on them. Sri Lanka didn't.
