More about Sri Lanka
The island of Ceylon is separated from the Indian mainland by the shallow Palk Strait and the Gulf of Mannar. In between, a chain of islands (Adam’s Bridge) is placed on the flat shelf base. Most of the island, except for the southwest, is bordered by lagoons. Wide-ranging lowlands and coastal plains predominate. In the southern part of the interior rises a mountain range, which in Pidurutalagala reaches 2,524 m above sea level, in Adam’s Peak 2 243 m above sea level. The mountain range, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010, has several island mountains on the edgesupstream (including Sigiriya). The lowlands are extensive in the north, north-east and north-west, in the south-east and east, and especially in the west and south, to a narrow strip. Almost the entire island is made up of Precambrian rocks from the basement. Only the extreme northwest, including the Jaffna peninsula, consists predominantly of tertiary limestone and is partially karstified. The longest river is the Mahaweli. In the southeast, the Gal Oya is of particular economic importance.

Climate
Its location in the tropical zone and the influence of the Southeast Asian monsoons shape the island’s climate. The mountains are important for the differentiation of the climate, among other things. as a barrier to the air masses of the monsoons. Sri Lanka can be divided into a smaller wetland and a more extensive dry zone. Most of the precipitation in the south-west comes from the humid south-west monsoon, which blows from May to September (maximum precipitation in May, a second maximum in October; annual average precipitation in coastal towns is 2,300 to 2,500 mm, in the mountains up to over 5,000 mm). The northeast, located in the rain shadow of the mountains, receives most of the precipitation from the less pronounced, drier northeast monsoon, especially in the winter months (Jaffna 1,300 mm, Trincomalee 1,600 mm). The annual mean temperatures in Colombo 26.9 ° C, Trincomalee 28 ° C, Puttalam 27.2 ° C, decrease with increasing altitude: Kandy(477 m above sea level) 24.4 ° C, Nuwara Eliya (1,882 m above sea level) 15.4 ° C. The annual and daily fluctuations in temperatures are small, they are higher in the dry northeast than in the humid southwest. Check campingship to see National Parks of Sri Lanka.
Vegetation
From the natural vegetation of the wet zone, the tropical rainforest, mountain and cloud forest, only remnants are preserved in the stage of tea cultivation (1,000–2,300 m above sea level) as in the rural area below. In the south-west of the island in the mountains of Sabaragamuwa, the Sinharaja forest reserve (UNESCO World Heritage Site) is preserved as the last original rainforest (endemic tree species) of Sri Lanka. In the north and east, savannahs and dry forests predominate as secondary vegetation.
Tourism
Despite the tense domestic situation, Sri Lanka is one of the most important tourist centers in Asia with the historical sites of Anuradhapura, Mihintale, Polonnaruwa and Kandy, various national parks and bird reserves as well as extensive sandy beaches. The foreign visitors (2015: 1.8 million) come mainly from India, China and Germany.
