Destination & City Travel Guide
About Colombo
Colombo is often the first Sri Lankan stop after landing at Bandaranaike International Airport near Katunayake. Pettah’s market streets, the Gangaramaya temple and Galle Face Green show different parts of the city within a compact area, although road traffic changes the pace. The National Museum adds an indoor visit, and Colombo Fort remains an important transport point. Indian travellers can spend a day here before taking a train south or beginning a wider island route.
Read more about Colombo
Tips for travellers from India
Fort is the practical choice when a rail departure forms part of a short stay; Galle Face instead puts the seafront within easy reach. Cinnamon Gardens suits the National Museum and Independence Square. Bandaranaike Airport is at Katunayake, outside Colombo, so an airport hotel and a central city hotel serve different purposes. A late arrival followed by an early flight may favour the airport area, whereas a day of sightseeing needs the road transfer into Colombo itself.
Pettah and Fort fit together as a market-and-architecture walk, while Gangaramaya and the nearby lake area belong to another circuit. The National Museum is a collection visit rather than a brief stop on the way to a train, so pair it with Cinnamon Gardens. Galle Face Green is a flexible evening endpoint after those indoor sights. City of Dreams Sri Lanka opened in August 2025, adding hotel, dining and entertainment facilities to the central waterfront area; it is separate from the older museum district. For onward rail travel, identify Colombo Fort station on the ticket rather than treating every Colombo station as interchangeable. Pettah’s commercial lanes can be awkward with wheeled luggage, making Fort accommodation useful when combining a market visit with an onward train.
Best time to visit Colombo
December to March, around 23–32°C, with comparatively drier west-coast weather.

About Thiruvananthapuram
Thiruvananthapuram became the capital of the Travancore kings in the late 18th century, and the gopuram of the Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple still dominates the old fort area. The economy rests on state administration, the Technopark IT campus, space research at the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre and a large education sector. Visitors come for the beaches of Kovalam and Varkala, Ayurveda centres, the museums in the Napier Museum grounds and the drive south to Kanyakumari.
Read more about Thiruvananthapuram
Tips for travellers
Hotels in the centre around Thampanoor and East Fort are close to the railway station and the temple, while Kovalam, about 16 km south, suits a beach stay. KSRTC runs city circular buses, and app cabs and auto-rickshaws cover most trips; there is no metro. The two airport terminals are on opposite sides of the runway and reached by different roads, so confirm yours before setting out. Varkala is on the main railway line north of the city, so its cliffs can be reached by train, and Kanyakumari, about 90 km south, makes a long day trip by road or rail.
The Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple admits only Hindus and keeps a strict dress code: men wear a mundu or dhoti without a shirt, and women wear a saree or a long skirt, and a dhoti can be hired near the gates. Phones and cameras must be deposited before entry. The Attukal Pongala, usually in February or March, brings huge numbers of women into the city to cook offerings along the roads, and traffic stops across the centre for the day. The south-west monsoon lasts from June to September, with a second rainy spell in October and November; December to February is the driest season. Onam, in August or September, is marked by a week of state celebrations and lit-up streets.
Best time to visit Thiruvananthapuram
December to February, with days of about 23-32°C and little rain. June to September brings the south-west monsoon.

How to reach Thiruvananthapuram
By Air: Thiruvananthapuram International Airport (TRV) is at Chakkai, about 6 km from the city centre; allow 20-30 minutes by road. Prepaid taxis, app cabs and auto-rickshaws serve both terminals, which lie on different sides of the runway.
By Rail: Thiruvananthapuram Central at Thampanoor is the main station, and Thiruvananthapuram North, formerly Kochuveli, handles some long-distance trains. Vande Bharat trains run north to Kasaragod and Mangaluru.
By Road: NH 66 runs north to Kollam and Kochi and south towards Kanyakumari. KSRTC buses leave from the central bus station at Thampanoor, opposite the railway station.
What to do in Thiruvananthapuram
See the Travancore collections at the Napier Museum and the Sree Chitra Art Gallery.
Walk the clifftop path at Varkala, about 50 km north.
