About Colombo

Colombo, la più grande città dello Sri Lanka e capitale commerciale, riunisce edifici coloniali, templi buddhisti, mercati animati e lungomare.

Galle Face Green, un lungo prato sul mare, si riempie di famiglie, aquilonisti e bancarelle di cibo di strada quando il sole tramonta sull'Oceano Indiano. Nelle vicinanze, il distretto del Forte conserva edifici coloniali come il Vecchio Ospedale Olandese, restaurato come negozi e ristoranti, e la moschea Jami Ul-Alfar a strisce rosse e bianche si innalza sulle affollate vie del mercato di Pettah.
