Ceylon LUXE

Did You Know?

“The Bridge of Nine Skies”

Known in Sinhala as “Ahas Namaye Palama”, the bridge gets its name from looking up beneath its nine arches, where each frame opens to a perfect view of the sky. Its curved design seamlessly mirrors the valley’s natural gradient.

To celebrate every poet, creative writer, artist and dreamer, the day specially dedicated to appreciate every word they write to convey, Ceylon LUXE substantiates ‘World Literacy day’ with a few heartfelt messages from our writers.

‘An unforgettable feeling or experience that you would say is only found in Sri Lanka.’

Our third issue of the year celebrates the wild beauty and refined luxury of Sri Lanka, featuring the breathtaking wildlife photography of Ravisara Jayamanna on our cover.

From majestic leopards and untamed wilderness to exceptional luxury villas, hotels and experiences, this issue captures Sri Lanka where nature meets luxury.

Ravisara’s work has been featured by BBC and National Geographic India, and he is a proud Sony Wildlife Ambassador for Sri Lanka.

Ceylon LUXE is proud to introduce a gleaming new segment, “Legacy in Motion”!

Meant to highlight aspiring stars in their industries, count on us to let the world know what is on the rise.

For August, our “Legacy in Motion” is Shahla Safaz, founder of Cakeology and a trailblazing entrepreneur!

“My baking journey sparked at the age of 10, when I wanted to surprise my father on his birthday. At the time, I couldn’t afford a birthday gift for him, so I decided to bake a cake for the first time. What began as a simple gesture transcended into a passion. I continued baking for my family, experimenting and learning along the way, eventually turning that passion into Cakeology.”

One decision can pave the way for an empire to bloom. Regardless of any limits the world throws at you, chasing a dream can bypass every boundary, even at a young age.

For the month of August, Ceylon LUXE has declared… The Cavern as the esteemed "Hotel of the Month"!

A luxury boutique hotel nestled in the TOTUM Estate in Agarapathana. The destination sits beside Hatton and Nuwara Eliya, a walk away from 50 acres of untouched cloud forest.

A highlight of The Cavern is its TOTUM Organic Farm, where most of the stay's food is sourced. A true "Farm-to-table" concept. This natural, ancient cave was carved and transformed into a luxury villa. Its rock formations were preserved and woven seamlessly into a design that blends refined luxury inside with untouched nature outside. This makes it a truly unique accommodation, offering guests an experience unlike any other: a genuine Cave Experience.

The establishment was crowned Sri Lanka's Leading Boutique Hotel in 2025 at the World Travel Awards. For those wondering why, the hotel's unique architectural style and premium elegance amplify the notion of quiet extravagance.

A place to sink into and just be, surrounded by luxury.

Happy International Photography Day!

A single day dedicated to the art and those who manoeuvre it, fostering their passion and building up their skill.

The end of a day is the dawn of night.

Not one is the same. Not one will return.

Here’s a series of sunsets in Sri Lanka, remnants of beautiful ends to a day.
