The island nation of Sri Lanka has magical beaches and a rich Buddhist heritage that attract more than ten thousand Israelis each year.
The goal of the Sri Lankan Ministry of Tourism for 2019 is to increase the amount of Israelis visiting the island by 20%.
For that purpose, officials from the Sri Lankan Tourism Ministry will visit Tel Aviv to participate in the International Mediterranean Tourism Market [IMTM] to be held February 12-13 at the Tel Aviv Convention Center.
