Sinhala and Tamil New Year is celebrated by two major ethnic groups in Sri Lanka and it is one of the nation’s most exquisitely celebrated holidays. This year, too, the auspicious day will be celebrated with many COVID-19 restrictions in place. The new year celebrations will fall on 14th April, which will be a national holiday as well as 13th April. Those who wish to enjoy family holidays during this period can choose from beachside getaways; this includes properties such as Sri Sharavi Beach Villas & Spa, which is among the options for those who will be searching for great Mirissa hotels at which they could potentially spend their holiday.
Sri Lanka is the only country in which you can witness the colourful celebrations of Sinhala and Tamil New Year; these include the ‘Avurudu Table’, which is a decorative culinary affair consisting of traditional Sri Lankan delicacies, boiling milk in a pot as the new year dawns, worshipping elders, playing ‘Avurudu games’, and wearing lucky colours during auspicious times.
