Best tourist season in Sri Lanka

Going to travel is definitely to choose the most appropriate time. Today, Xiaobian will tell you about the relevant raiders of this place. You can also learn about the relevant information. Now Xiaobian will tell you about this information.

The best playing season: December-March in the southwest coast, May-September in the east and north, and December-March in the central tea garden. Therefore, December to March of the following year is the best time to travel in Sri Lanka, which is tropical and hot all the year round. There are no four seasons in the whole year, only the difference between rainy season and dry season. The rainy season is May to August and November to February of the following year.

Because it is located in the tropics, it is hot all year round, so it is good to wear summer clothes, and the most important thing is to be prepared against frost! Please be sure to bring SPF50 or above. The ultraviolet rays here are too strong. You may get sunburned when it rains on cloudy days, and you should pay more attention to the beach, otherwise you will be like us!

If you want to go to central nuwara eliya, remember to prepare a thick coat. It belongs to the plateau, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large. When we went at the end of March, it was only a few degrees at night, so light down jackets came in handy.

By the way, because there are many religious temples in Sri Lanka, it is required to wear short sleeves on the top and at least knee-high on the bottom. When entering the temple, you should take off your shoes, and it is also ok for those who wear shorts to wear a scarf as a skirt.

When you get off the plane, you can buy dialog's calling card directly at the airport. There is a 9G package for 1350 rupees (including 5G daytime traffic +4G night traffic, and 50 minutes of local and 50 minutes of foreign calls), that is, there are many people waiting in line.

Since we arrived at 10: 00 p.m. and were afraid that the pick-up driver would wait too long, we bought the dialog calling card in advance in Taobao, and 68 yuan's 6GB package (including 2G daytime traffic +4G night traffic, and 18 minutes of foreign or 48 minutes of local calls), generally hotels will have WIFI, and two cards will be enough for a 13-day trip. If you have enough time, it is more cost-effective to buy it at the airport. Generally speaking, the signal is good, and it is occasionally worse in mountainous areas.

"Switching plug"

There are two kinds of plugs commonly used in Sri Lanka, one is British standard, and the other is Xiaonan non-standard (bought on Taobao, which is very convenient), which are the two in the picture. Sometimes the hotel will provide it, and it is better to bring it with you. If there are many electrical appliances, you can prepare a patch panel.

Remember to bring a sheet or a dirty sleeping bag when you go to Sri Lanka. It's really super practical. The hotels there basically don't provide quilts, only a thin layer of cloth. Children's shoes that are afraid of cold and insecure without quilts must remember to bring them!

【 Precautions 】

1. There are many people competing to be tour guides at the entrance and inside the scenic spots in Sri Lanka, and the fees are unreasonable, so be careful of these "enthusiastic" people.

2. Sri Lanka is a Buddhist country, and monks are often encountered on the road. Please ask for permission before taking pictures.

3. Many Buddhist scenic spots are required to take off their shoes to show respect. The clothes should be as conservative as possible and not too exposed. When visiting the temple, they should be clockwise, and no photos should be taken in the temple.

4. In Buddhist culture, the head is very sacred, so you can't touch a child's head casually.

5. Although the safety of traveling in Sri Lanka is much higher than that in India, most Sri Lankans are friendly and kind. But for girls, they still need special attention to prevent local men from harassing them.

6. Don't use your left hand when eating and passing things. For local people, your left hand is dirty.

7. Remember to bargain at half price when buying gems. If you don't understand, you'd better not buy them.

The best time to travel in Sri Lanka is April and September-November every year. At this time, the climate of the whole country is more suitable for travel, and there will not be too many tourists. Therefore, I suggest you: travel during this period. However, it is necessary to avoid the Sri Lankan New Year in mid-April, and there will be many local tourists traveling. Listening to the tour leader of the weathervane said that it was also very interesting and a rare experience to see their New Year activities in April.

The annual peak season in Sri Lanka is from December to March. At this time, the mountains and the southwest coast are dry seasons, and there are many tourists during Christmas in the West and the Lunar New Year in China. The off-season is from May to August, when the rainy season comes, there is more rain in the mountains and the southwest coast, and the price in the off-season will be cheaper. However, the Buddha's Tooth Festival (late July or early August) also belongs to the peak season in some areas, especially in Kandy, so it can be said that a room is hard to find. The staff of the weathervane travel told me that if it is not necessary, it is best not to go to Kandy at this time, otherwise it will be too expensive and you will not be able to play well.

Best season for tourism in Sri Lanka

Lead: Sri Lanka, known as "Tears in the Indian Ocean", was originally named "Ceylon", with beautiful beaches, ancient cities with thousands of years, castles in the Netherlands and rich tropical flora and fauna. Although this country infiltrated by Buddhism has been in war, the lotus flowers are still in full bloom, and Sinhalese means "bright and rich paradise". The following is the best season for you to travel in Sri Lanka. I hope it will help you!

Best season for tourism in Sri Lanka:

Western and southern beaches and central mountainous areas: December to March of the following year is the best.

North and East (including the Cultural Triangle): April to September is the best.

Sri Lanka has diverse landforms, so the most suitable travel time in different regions is different. From December to March every year, the beaches in the southwest, including Colombo, the capital, are hot but the climate is pleasant. Occasionally, there will be heavy rains on the beach, but they usually come and go quickly. The central mountainous area is relatively humid all the year round. Although this period is the stage with the least rain in the whole year, it still cannot escape the frequency of rain for two days. At this time, the cultural triangle area is in the rainy season, with abundant rainfall, which will have a certain impact on the play; Yala National Park is sultry and mosquito-ridden; Due to Christmas and New Year, European and American tourists fleeing from the cold winter flock to Sri Lanka. It is hard to find a room on the popular beach. It is strongly recommended to book in advance. During this period, the prices of travel agencies and chartered cars have also increased, which needs attention. From April to September every year, most areas in the north and east enter the dry season, which is a good time to visit historical sites. However, during this period, it almost rained continuously in the central mountainous areas, which made people quite disappointed.

If you want to visit Sri Lanka well, once is definitely not enough.

Introduction of Sri Lanka

Known as "tears in the Indian Ocean", Sri Lanka, formerly known as "Ceylon", has beautiful beaches, a thousand-year-old city, castles in the Netherlands and rich tropical flora and fauna. Although this country infiltrated by Buddhism has been in war, the lotus flowers are still in full bloom, and Sinhalese means "bright and rich paradise".

With unparalleled seashore, lush lowlands, rich natural and cultural heritage and unique charming cultural atmosphere, it was once known as "the Pearl of the Indian Ocean" and "the Kingdom of Black Tea". As soon as I arrived in Sri Lanka, I was greeted with a strong flavor of spices and tropical island countries. Ancient cities, shrines, temples, small forests or wild grasslands, swarms of elephants, monkeys, beautiful birds and butterflies make people go back and forth happily.

Colombo, the capital with four seasons like summer and beautiful scenery, is one of the ancient cities in Sri Lanka and is known as the "Oriental Crossroads". There are "national trees" ironwood trees and "national flowers" water lilies planted everywhere in the streets, but more are coconut trees soaring into the sky. There are also many strange trees, such as the "rain tree"-the leaves absorb water in the evening, until the sun rises, the leaves stretch, and water is sprinkled under the trees like raindrops.

On the streets of the old city of Colombo, Hindu and Buddhist temples, Islamic temples and Christian churches complement each other. The National Museum, located on the south side of Victoria Park, is one of the main landscapes in Colombo. It is the largest collection of cultural relics in Sri Lanka, displaying precious cultural relics in various historical periods, the most striking of which is a monument built in Sri Lanka by the eunuch Sambo of the Ming Dynasty when he went to the Western Seas. The top of the monument is engraved with China's patterns and characters.

The best-preserved urban center in Asia has been formally proposed as the eighth wonder of the world's historic sites. Sri Lanka's traditional architectural style is vividly displayed here: the gardens, paths and waterside pavilions under the tree-lined trees blend together; Symmetric and asymmetric architectural elements complement each other; The varied plane, axis and radius design are perfectly combined; East and west, two moats and three walls surround two rectangular urban areas.

The beautiful Indian Ocean, ancient religious culture, primitive exotic customs and authentic black tea make tourists here want to stay ...

What is the time difference between Sri Lanka and China?

25 hours (2 hours and 30 minutes).

I don't understand English, but

When Sri Lanka (Colombo) uses the East Zone 55, it is 8-55 = 25 hours later than the East Zone 8 on the mainland (Beijing time).

If Beijing time is 1: 00 on June 28th, Sri Lanka (Colombo) time is 1: 00-2: 30 on June 28th = 22: 30 on June 27th.

China is 2 hours and 30 minutes ahead of Sri Lanka.

Calculation method of time difference: the difference between the standard time (instant zone number) of two time zones is the time difference, and the time zone with larger value is earlier. Dongba District, the capital of China. The Sri Lankan capital, Prakot, Sri Jayawardene, is located in the east fifth district, but its national standard time is half time zone.

So China is East Eighth District (+8)- Sri Lanka (+55)=25, which means that China is 2 hours and 30 minutes faster than Sri Lanka.

Extended data

Whenever the sun shines, it is 12 noon. But different places see the sun shining at different times. For example, it is already 12 noon in Shanghai, and it will take five hours for residents in Moscow to see the sun shining; It's already 2 o'clock in the afternoon in Sydney, Australia.

Therefore, if all localities use local time standards, it will bring a lot of inconvenience to administration, transportation and daily life. In order to overcome this difficulty, astronomers worked out a solution: draw an area every 15 degrees in the longitude of the world, so there are 24 areas. A unified time standard is adopted in each area, which is called "time zone".

It is artificially stipulated that the East 12th district on the west side of the date line is always 24 hours earlier than the West 12th district on the east side of the date line at any time. Thus, although the time of the East 12th district and the West 12th district are the same in a time zone, the dates are always one day different, that is, the East 12th district is one day earlier than the West 12th district at any time.

Therefore, from west to east, the date will be reduced by one day; On the contrary, crossing the date line from east to west will add one day. In order to prevent the date line from crossing the land, the date line is not exactly the same as the 180 meridian, but several twists and turns are added.
