Colombo
Amazing Colours
Built right up to the shores of the Indian Ocean, Colombo faces west into the setting sun.
Many evenings begin with an explosion of magenta and purple on the horizon that you can
share with others at a hotel bar or with the real people along the shore.
Pettah Market
The first time you almost get run down by a madman with a cart full of goods in the mar-
kets of Pettah, you may regret your decision to come. But soon you'll be in the chaotic
thick of things and on the ride away, you'll be urging your three-wheeler driver to go
faster, faster!
Retail Therapy
From artwork to tea, you can find unique and desirable goods and gifts in Colombo, espe-
cially along the leafy streets of Cinnamon Gardens.
