Colombo,
a luxury guide.

Colombo has reinvented itself in the past decade — Galle Face Green, Cinnamon Gardens, the revived Pettah markets and the lakeside Bawa houses now make it a genuinely interesting city stop rather than a transit point. Most travellers spend one or two nights here on arrival or departure.

Best time: Year-round. Duration: 1–2 nights.
