Sri Lanka travel guide

Sri Lanka - Colombo (Chapter)

This is the Colombo chapter from Lonely Planet's Sri Lanka guidebook.

No longer just the sprawling city you have to endure on your way to the southern beaches, Colombo has become a worthy destination in its own right. New restaurants, designer shops and other attractions open constantly.

  • revel in the restoration of the historic Fort area
  • maps
  • plunge into the commercial madness of the shops, stalls and markets of ages-old Pettah
  • transport
  • catch a sunset amid families and courting couples on Colombo's front lawn, Galle Face Green
  • restaurants & accommodation

Coverage includes: Sights, Activities, Tours, Festivals & Events, Sleeping, Eating, Drinking, Entertainment and Shopping.
