India in May re-emerged as Sri Lanka’s top inbound tourist market with 5,562 arrivals followed by the U.K. with 3,723 arrivals.

“Sri Lanka’s newly appointed tourism brand Ambassador, cricket legend @Sanath07 met High Commissioner. The meeting focused on strengthening ties between the people of India and Sri Lanka and promoting tourism as an instrument for economic recovery,” the Indian High Commission tweeted. Responding to the tweet, Jayasuriya thanked Baglay for agreeing to meet him. “We will concentrate on promoting the Ramayana trail to the Indian tourists,” he tweeted.

Both India and Sri Lanka agreed in 2008 to work on enhancing shared cultural and religious values based on the Ramayana heritage. The Ramayana is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India and an important text of Hinduism. There are 52 sites on the Ramayana Trail in Sri Lanka.
