Despite recent political turmoil in the country, this was a huge deal for the countries tourism industry and gave the island some hope. With smaller cities getting in the tourism scene such as Kalutara, resorts, hotels, and restaurants are cropping up, Anantara Kalutara Resort, one of them, all contributing to the market.
