Cuisine: They can savor diverse and flavorful Sri Lankan cuisine, learning to prepare dishes like curry and hoppers, gaining insights into local culinary traditions.
Language and Communication: They'll have the chance to pick up some Sinhala or Tamil phrases, enhancing their language skills and facilitating deeper connections with locals.
Traditional Clothing: Visitors can try on traditional clothing like saris or sarongs, gaining an appreciation for the significance and elegance of these garments.
