Laksala will be a shopping point for Iranians

The leading Iranian travel agents endeavour to position Sri Lanka in the tourism generating markets as a preferred tourism destination  to promote various Sri Lankan products and to increase Sri Lanka’s share of the global tourism market.

Under above objectives, Iranian representatives visited Laksala at Thummulla today (21st) to find out handcraft products available for Iranians. In their opinion Laksala will be one of shopping centres for those who visit Sri Lanka from Iran in future.

Sri Lankan authorities undertook a series of promotional initiatives to minimize the negative impact of the Easter Sunday disaster  and to promote tourism to Sri Lanka. As a government entity Laksala also  produced  an awareness campaign through its social media on the theme “ Promoting Tourism”. A cultural event "Heritage to Future" was organized by Laksala  last month to promote tourism too.
