Marvel at a sandstone sculpture of a Yakshini, a benevolent tree spirit from Sanskrit mythology, guarding hidden treasures within the earth since the 1st century A. D. As dusk settles over Weligama on Sri Lanka's South Coast, witness the mesmerizing sight of stilt fishermen skillfully balancing above the waves, casting their nets for an abundant catch.

Journey further into history at Sigiriya, a UNESCO World Heritage Site nestled in Sri Lanka's North Central Province. Admire ancient frescoes adorning towering rock formations and marvel at the ethereal beauty of Sigiriya Damsels or Cloud Maidens who seem to dance amidst clouds on Lion Rock Fortress. In Jaipur's Chhoti Chaupar square, lose yourself in vibrant street markets teeming with colors and aromas. Experience India's bustling energy as locals barter for spices, textiles, and trinkets that reflect centuries-old traditions. At Gal Vihara once again, witness monks gazing upon a reclining Buddha statue – an embodiment of peace and enlightenment. Nearby lies Cobra Hood Cave; its intricate carvings dating back to the 5th century AD will leave you awestruck by human craftsmanship through time. Escape to paradise at Olhuveli Beach and Spa Resort in Maldives' dreamy South Male Atoll. Feel your worries melt away amidst pristine white sands and crystal-clear waters while indulging in ultimate relaxation.
