Halcyon Mawella is tucked away in the sunny beachside town of Tangalle, just mere steps away from the Mawella Beach. It is the ideal location to unwind and take in Sri Lanka's beachside beauty. The sea is the only thing visible beyond the tufts of beach palms at the point where the jungle meets the warm inviting waters of the Indian Ocean.
 
The property boasts an inviting pool and an interesting Iluk roof, a traditional grass used for roofing in Sri Lanka for centuries. There are so many cosy quiet areas throughout the property and grounds where you can unwind in peace, from covered private balconies to sunny areas where the lawns meet the sand.
 
Allow yourself to be treated to some fabulous traditional Sri Lankan cuisine as well, and savor the locally grown, freshly sourced ingredients straight from the garden.

📍Buduruwagala Rock Temple

The rock temple dating back to the ninth or 10th century. It consists of seven ancient Buddhist figures carved into the face of a large cliff. The name Buduruwagala is derived from the words for Buddha (Budu), images (ruva) and stone (gala). The largest statue measures 51 feet high, making it the tallest Buddha statue in Sri Lanka. Buduruwagala can be reached from either Wellawaya or Thanamalwila. The 4km track crosses a series of delicate lakes. Keep an eye out for local birdlife, including many egrets and herons!

The ancestral home of Martin Wickramasinghe, a well-known writer and poet from Sri Lanka, who grew up in this house and resided there with his family in Koggala. This family home turned museum, with an abundance of charisma is over 200 years old.

It is said that the Royal Air Force occupied the entire village during the war, and locals were given only 24 hours to leave. While most homes were then destroyed, the complex, which was in the middle of the airfield, caught the attention of a high-ranking female Air Force officer, who stopped the destruction of the home and made it her personal quarters for the duration of the war because of its location in the middle of the airfield and its simple, charming and sturdy structure.

What remains today has been turned into a museum complex that features interesting historic relics, pictures, and awards.

A visit to the Pettah Market is a must if you happen to be in Colombo.

An open air market with a mix of wholesale and retail stores, historical buildings, business institutions, and everything in between. You can find anything you can think of on the streets of Petah and it is one of Sri Lanka's busiest commercial zones.

As you make your way through the maze like streets of this vibrant bazaar amongst the traffic, traders, shops and street food vendors, it is an experience you won’t forget.

Pettah is also steeped in history and amazing architecture like the beautiful Red Mosque, the Old Town Hall Building, the Dutch Museum, the Kayman's Gate Bell tower, and more.

Tucked away in the mountain range, where guests may enjoy the pleasant hill side air while still being close to the city.
