• Colombo Port City - Port City Colombo is designed to connect with the South Asian market by offering investment opportunities, an international business environment, top-tier infrastructure, and sustainable living of high quality.

Upon its completion, Port City Colombo will include five unique precincts: the Financial District, Central Park Living, Island Living, the Marina, and the International Island. The city will also feature over 6.4 million square meters of new developments in residential, healthcare, education, entertainment, hotels, restaurants, retail, and commercial sectors.

In May 2021, the Sri Lankan Parliament passed the Port City Commission Bill to create the Colombo Port City Special Economic Zone and Economic Commission. This legislation allows companies to be exempt from all taxes, including personal, corporate, excise, import, and others, for up to forty years.

• Colombo National Museum - The museum is located in a former Dutch prison, constructed in 1676, and is the only remaining Dutch period building in the Colombo Port area. The building was refurbished and renovated to house the artifacts at a cost of Rs 25 million, following a concept introduced by the Minister of Ports Development, Rehabilitation & Reconstruction, M. H. M. Ashraff. It was officially inaugurated in August 2003 by the Minister of Shipping, Ports Development, Eastern Development, and Muslim Religious Affairs, Rauff Hakeem.

The museum displays various historically significant items related to the country’s ports, maritime industry, and the ocean surrounding Sri Lanka. Sculptures of King Vijeya and other notable figures are exhibited alongside model ship displays.

Additionally, there are artworks and models representing the systematic development of the Colombo Port and equipment used in port operations over time.

• Jami Ul-Alfar Mosque - Situated in the bustling streets of Pettah, the red and white Jami-ul-Alfar Mosque (commonly known as the Red Mosque) stands as a prominent tourist attraction in Colombo and is one of the city’s oldest mosques. Its clock tower and candy-cane-striped minarets, visible from miles away, once served as a landmark for sailors approaching Colombo’s ports. Commissioned by the local Muslim community in the early 1900s for a central prayer location, the mosque was completed and opened to worshippers by 1909. Designed by Habibu Labbe Saibu Lebbe, an unknown architect of the time, it features Indo-Saracenic architecture. Notably, its “pomegranate-shaped domes” differ from the traditional onion-shaped domes of mosques.
• Lotus Tower - The Lotus Tower (Sinhala: නෙළුම් කුළුණ, romanized: Nelum Kuluna; Tamil: தாமரைக் கோபுரம், romanized: Tāmaraik Kōpuram), also known as the Colombo Lotus Tower, stands at 351.5 meters (1,153 feet) in Colombo, Sri Lanka. It has become a symbolic landmark for the country. As of 2019, it is the tallest self-supported structure in South Asia and the second tallest overall, following the guy-wire-supported INS Kattabomman antenna tower in India. It ranks as the 11th tallest tower in Asia and the 19th tallest in the world. Initially proposed to be built in Peliyagoda, the Sri Lankan Government later changed the location. The lotus-shaped structure serves multiple purposes, including communication, observation, and leisure facilities. The construction cost was approximately US$113 million.
• Temple of Sri Kailawasanathan Swami Devasthanam Kovil - Also known as Captain’s Garden Kovil, this is Colombo’s oldest Hindu Temple. The temple’s South-Indian inspired architecture, along with its vibrant paintings and intricate artwork, especially on the ceiling, is remarkable. New structures were being built during the visit, indicating ongoing expansion. The temple houses numerous statues of various Hindu gods, with Easwaran (Shiva) and Ganesh being the main deities.
• Viharamahadevi Park - Viharamahadevi Park (Sinhala: විහාරමහාදේවී උද්‍යානය; formerly Victoria Park, Sinhala: වික්ටෝරියා පාක්) is a public park located in Cinnamon Gardens, Colombo, situated in front of the colonial-era Town Hall in Sri Lanka. Built by the British colonial administration, it is the oldest and largest park in Colombo. Originally named “Victoria Park” after Queen Victoria, it was renamed after Queen Viharamahadevi, the mother of King Dutugamunu, on July 18, 1958.
• Old Town Hall - The Town Hall of Colombo serves as the headquarters of the Colombo Municipal Council and the office of the Mayor of Colombo. Located in front of Viharamahadevi Park, it is the meeting place for the elected municipal council.

In 1921, renowned Scottish town planner, Professor Patrick Geddes, recommended the construction of a large, central, and dignified municipal building to house the council, a public reception hall, the mayor’s office, and a public library. The need for the Colombo Public Library was addressed by a philanthropic donation of a building by Dr. W. Arthur Silva in 1925. This building, Sirinivasa, is now the official residence of the mayor.

• Gangaramaya (Vihara) Buddhist Temple - Gangaramaya Temple (Sinhala: ශ්‍රී ගංගාරාම මහාවිහාරය śrī gangārāma mahāvihāraya, Tamil: ஸ்ரீ கங்காராம மகாவிகாரம் Srī Gaṅgārāma Makāvikāram) is one of the most significant temples in Colombo, Sri Lanka, blending modern architecture with cultural essence. Located on Beira Lake, it was completed in the late 19th century.
• Traditional Gem Mine - Renowned for excellent quality, value, and unmatched service, a wide range of jewelry types, stones, and styles are offered at prices to suit every need. Especially known for fine quality rubies, pearls, emeralds, and other colored stones in various settings.

As one of the most reputable jewelry stores in Sri Lanka, a myriad of products and services are available in the spacious showroom, where unique and stylish pieces are also created. Only the highest quality, value, and services are provided to clients.

• Ceylon Tea Supermarket - Ceylon tea, a type of black tea, is celebrated for its bold, full, and brisk flavor, originating from Sri Lanka, where it plays a significant role in the country’s culture and economy.
  Here’s a more detailed look at Ceylon tea:
  Origin and Production:
  Ceylon tea is grown and manufactured entirely in Sri Lanka.
  The Sri Lanka Tea Board is the legal proprietor of the Lion Logo of Ceylon tea.
  Tea from Sri Lanka must meet strict quality standards set by the Sri Lanka Tea Board and be packed in Sri Lanka to qualify as “Ceylon Tea”.
  The tea is exclusively handpicked by expert tea pluckers and is mostly produced through orthodox and artisanal methods.
  Ceylon tea is the first Ozone Friendly Tea in the world and does not use Methyl-Bromide during packaging and shipping.
• Laksala - Sri Lanka boasts a wide variety of traditional handicrafts, with a tradition of craftsmanship as old as the nation itself. According to the Mahavansa (The Great Chronicle), when Prince Vijaya from India arrived in Sri Lanka in the 6th century BC, he encountered Kuveni spinning cotton. Ancient kings supported craftsmen, encouraging their development, which was a key factor in its growth.

Masks
Masks are ornamental facial decorations used in entertainment and dance. Early humans used masks in rituals, dramas, and for healing sickness. It is believed that masks offer curative benefits for psychological issues.
The use of masks in Sri Lanka is as old as the Sinhala nation, with three main varieties crafted from the wood called “Diya Kanduru” (nux vomica or Blazar). Diya Kanduru is chosen for its lightness, durability, resistance to cracking, insect resistance, and ease of carving.
