With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience all that Western Province, 30 miles away, has to offer. Jana Kala Kendraya ought to be at the top of your list here. Sri Lanka Air Force Museum and Kotte Rajamaha Viharaya are excellent attractions too. Situated 50 miles away, Central Province is another popular choice. If you swing by, be sure to check out Temple of the Tooth, Kandy Lake and Royal Palace of Kandy.
