Lõuna-Provintsi kohta
Sri Lanka lõunaprovints on väike geograafiline piirkond, mis koosneb Galle, Matara ja Hambantota ringkondadest. Toimetulekupõllumajandus ja kalapüük on valdava enamuse selle piirkonna elanike peamine sissetulekuallikas.
Lõunaprovintsi tähtsateks vaatamisväärsusteks on Yala ja Udawalawe rahvusparkide eluslooduse pühamud, püha Kataragama linn ning iidsed Tissamaharama, Kirinda ja Galle linnad. (Kuigi Galle on iidne linn, ei jää enne Portugali sissetungi peaaegu midagi ellu.)
