The Tourist Information Centre (TIC) at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) of Sri Lanka Tourism had a different atmosphere, bracing to share the festive cheer with both local and foreign tourists.
The Information Centre in Colombo was illuminated with festive colors, and was able to catch the attention of visitors and passersby with its colourful Christmas decorations including the beautiful Christmas tree. These, as well as Santa distributing gifts, seemed to charm foreign visitors who each received a souvenir, pleasantly surprised at this unexpected welcome.
The main purpose of making these arrangements was to display the festive spirit and convey the message of peace and harmony among all, regardless of religion or ethnicity.
