Landing at Bandaranaike International Airport, also known as Colombo Airport or Katunayake Airportin Katunayake, about 20 miles north of Colombo, marks the start of interesting sightseeing in Sri Lanka. The route depends on the direction taken first. One of the top spots to begin with can be Negombo, and a day in Negombo is fairly good enough before heading to other parts of Sri Lanka (TOP THINGS TO DO IN NEGAMBO, SRI LANKA). 

From there, travel in a small van amongst a small group of tourists can lead to Rambukkana, followed by Mawanella, before reaching Kandy, one of the significant destinations in Sri Lanka.
