Halal-friendly tourism: Sri Lanka rated fourth best among non-Islamic states

Multicultural Sri Lanka has been ranked as the world’s fourth best non-Islamic destination for Halal-friendly travel.

Sri Lanka’s ranking is as per a compilation by Halal website Crescentrating which has listed top 10 destinations among Organisation of Islamic Conference (OIC) as well as non-OIC states.

Bosnia and Herzegovina top the latter category followed by Singapore, South Africa and Sri Lanka. Though losing the 2018 Commonwealth Games bid to God Coast of Australia, Sri Lanka in the Halal-friendly travel destinations had an edge over the city of Queensland, which was ranked at fifth place.
In listing Sri Lanka, the website said Sri Lanka’s large Muslim population means Halal restaurants are aplenty in addition to number of Muslim-owned roadside food outlets.  Among OIC countries Malaysia ranked top followed by Egypt and Turkey.
