Sri Lanka is one of the most beautiful and photogenic countries in the world. From jaw-dropping temples and unreal scenery like misty tea plantations and palm-fringed beaches, here are our top Instagrammable spots you won't want to miss in Sri Lanka!

Colombo

Colombo is the capital of Sri Lanka, and where almost everyone begins their journey in the country.  Don’t let it just be a pit stop, but rather check out the beautiful architecture it has to offer.

Negombo

Next stop is Negombo, where the palm trees create the most beautiful backdrop for a full-on photo shoot. You need this kind of aesthetic to take your Insta to the next level.

Sigiriya Rock

Sigiriya Rock is one of the most visited places in Sri Lanka, and you’ll be kicking yourself if you don’t see it in person. It’s absolutely massive and so incredibly beautiful.  Who knew rocks could be so cool?

Temple of the Tooth

Go explore the Temple of the Tooth and get some great content for your feed.  Maybe even get some interior design inspiration along the way!

“World’s Most Scenic Train”

Ella is home to the “world’s most scenic train,” and it is well deserving of its name. With the iconic blue trains breezing through breathtaking landscapes, your pic will certainly stand out on your friend’s feeds.

Little Adam’s Peak

Sri Lanka’s natural beauties continue with Little Adam’s Peak.  Although it is a bit of a hike to get to, it will make your picture that much more worth it.

Nine Arches Bridge

Whether you see this bridge from ground level or actually up on top, the views are spectacular and the photo possibilities are endless.

Udawalawe National Park

Few things can compare to travelling through Udawalawe National Park on a safari ride.  You’ll be sure to see tons of wild animals along the way, so make sure to bring your camera to capture these majestic creatures in their natural habitat. Maybe you’ll even get a selfie with one of the animals if you’re lucky!

Unawatuna

Unawatuna is home to stunning beaches that have awesome photo ops like this swing.  Make sure to visit at sunset to get the pink sky effect naturally instead of through filters!
