Overview of your Colombo tour:

I'm eager to explore the city with you! As we begin our tour, let's start with Colombo's historical significance. Its busy harbor, dating back to ancient times, played a crucial role in connecting Sri Lanka to the rest of the world. The city's multicultural heritage, influenced by Portuguese, Dutch, and English rule, is evident in its architecture and cuisine. I'm particularly interested in the transformation of Central Colombo. The rise of skyscrapers and sky roads, coupled with land reclamation, certainly reflects the city's rapid development. However, it also raises questions about preserving its traditional charm. Let's explore Kotte, the New Capital, and see how it contrasts with Colombo. Are you curious to learn more about the city's administrative functions and its unique character? Are you ready to start our tour? Where would you like to go first?
