城市觀光建議

周邊交通資訊

Tuk Tuks are the most convenient way to get around.

Download the Pickme Or Uber an order a ride to the house so you wont get ripped off. If you have hail a tuk from the road make sure its a metered taxi.
攜帶物品

Dehiwlala Mount Lavinia is home to a lot of mosquitos

Better pack some mosquito repellent spray or cream or buy some from a super market.
