Nelum Pokuna Mahinda Rajapaksha Theatre Review

The Lianchi Theatre is a local landmark building in Colombo, and it was built by our Chinese assistance. The red exterior wall of the building is very eye-catching. It can be said that it is a local network and punching in, but there is no opening, you can only look outside.

Next to Victoria Park, there is a brick-red building, the famous Nelum Pokuna Mahinda Rajapaksa Theatre, which is a theater named after the previous president, built with Chinese aid, and the local Chinese affectionately call it the Lotus Theatre.

The Lotus Pool Theatre, also known as the Lotus Grand Theatre, was built with the assistance of China and Yantai. Because Sri Lanka's national flower is water lily, many buildings in Sri Lanka have lotus sculptures, including the top of the pillar of the Independent Memorial Hall is also lotus. Its lotus shape design is the symbol of Sri Lanka and Sino-Sri Lankan friendship.

It feels great, but many people will miss the Natural History Museum after seeing the National Museum, which is a pity because natural history is worth seeing. When I went, the hall was closed, and all the enthusiastic staff led the tour, but pay attention to taking pictures.

Due to the influence of geographical, cultural, colonial, and various architectural styles coexist, modern new buildings are mostly built by China, and the folk customs of Colombo are simple and the cost of living is relatively low. It is worth slowly appreciating.

This is the National Grand Theatre in Colombo, but it does not cover a large area. It is also a donation from China. We feel proud to be a Chinese. We can hardly see tall buildings on the streets of Sri Lanka, but there are few tall buildings with the words "Chinese Architecture".
