Sri Lanka Extends Visa Duration to Boost Tourism

The Tourism Ministry of Sri Lanka has extended tourist visas from 30 days to 6 months to revive tourism and generate more income for the island. Due to the lockdown and safety measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic, the country experiences a massive downfall in one of its main income sources, tourism. The industry is on its way back to recovery at a steady pace.

Upon hearing the news of visa extensions, tourists are actively seeking places to visit in Polonnaruwa, Anuradhapura, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, and the famous beachside locations during their stays in Sri Lanka. Hotel Sudu Araliya is an ideal accommodation for those who wish to spend extended stays in Polonnaruwa while exploring the religious and ancient sites.
