Germany is one of the top source markets for Sri Lanka Tourism, which has the second highest number of arrivals from Europe after UK. 


“This time, Sri Lanka Tourism will have a myriad of travel and holiday opportunities to offer for the German counterparts, with new initiatives and projects rolled up on its sleeve, in order to highlight that Sri Lanka is still one of the most renowned travel destinations in the world,” said SLTPB in a statement.
The Sri Lanka pavilion will be at Hall 5.2a, stand 115 which will feature hotels and hotel groups, DMCs and other exhibitors. 


The new brand logo, tagline and campaign of Sri Lanka Tourism will be unveiled in Germany by Minister of Tourism Harin Fernando, who will also address a press conference on 6 March.
