About Colombo

Colombo, Sri Lankas größte Stadt und Handelshauptstadt, vereint Kolonialbauten, buddhistische Tempel, lebhafte Märkte und eine Strandpromenade.

Galle Face Green, eine lange Rasenfläche am Meer, füllt sich bei Sonnenuntergang über dem Indischen Ozean mit Familien, Drachensteigern und Streetfood-Ständen. In der Nähe bewahrt das Fort-Viertel Kolonialbauten wie das Alte Holländische Hospital, das zu Läden und Restaurants restauriert wurde, und die rot-weiß gestreifte Jami-Ul-Alfar-Moschee ragt über die belebten Marktstraßen von Pettah auf.
