Map of Sri Lanka

The island of Sri Lanka lies in the Indian Ocean, to the southwest of
the Bay of Bengal and to the southeast of the Arabian Sea. It is
separated from the Indian subcontinent by the Gulf of Mannar and the
Palk Strait. According to Hindu mythology, a land bridge to the Indian
mainland, known as Rama's Bridge, was constructed during the time of
Rama by the vanara architect Nala. Often referred to as Adam's Bridge,
it now amounts to only a chain of limestone shoals remaining above sea
level. According to temple records, this natural causeway was formerly
complete, but was breached by a violent storm (probably a cyclone) in
1480. The width of the Palk Strait is small enough for the coast of Sri
Lanka to be visible from the furthest point near the Indian town of
Rameswaram. The pear-shaped island consists mostly of flat-to-rolling
coastal plains, with mountains rising only in the south-central part.
Amongst these are Sri Pada and the highest point Pidurutalagala (also
known as Mt Pedro), at 2,524 meters (8,281 ft). The Mahaweli ganga
(Mahaweli river) and other major rivers provide fresh water.
