Want to stay at one of the holiday resorts in Sri Lanka close to natural beauty. The good news is that they're all close to natural beauty, but some put you right next door. Stay at a holiday resort in Sri Lanka near the Yala National Park. There is the location of the highest density of leopards in the world. Watch as they lazily nap under a shade tree. Most island ecosystems don't have large mammals; this isn't so in Sri Lanka. Visit Uda Walawe National Park to see both the Asian Elephant and leopards, or stop at Minnerva National Park during September or October to watch "The Gathering". There are holiday resorts close to all the parks. The Uda Walawe National Park, one of the best places to see Elephants, is close to all the resorts on the Southern coastline.
