Museums

The museum is housed in a two storeys building. The galleries on the ground floor are arranged in a historical sequence starting from the prehistoric ages. The galleries on the upper floor are arranged on a thematic basis. Be prepared to spend a few hours in the museum if you are interested in the history of Sri Lanka as the museum houses a huge collection of artifacts. There are also many statues of Buddha. You can find one of the most well-preserved statues of Buddha from the fourth century in the lobby.

DEAR张小球
St. Mary's Church is a particularly beautiful Catholic church and the surroundings are also very good. People here hold weddings. Most will choose to be held here at St. Mary's Church, which is also a local landmark historical building.

This is the site of Sri Lanka's independence ceremony on February 4, 1948, to commemorate Sri Lanka's independence from British colonial rule. The memorial hall is surrounded by no walls, airy and bright, suitable for the tropical climate of South Asia.

This Bandaranaike International Conference Center was built free of charge in China. It represents a landmark of China-Slovenia friendly relations in the local area. The Chinese Embassy is also opposite. The shape of the building is very similar to the Great Hall of the People. There are also statues of great people inside.

The fish market on the periphery is busiest from 5 to 7 in the morning. Under the dim light, bargaining is repeated. The so-called tour guide enthusiastically introduces you to all kinds of strange and never-before-seen seafood. .

DEAR张小球
Negombo Beach is very beautiful, the coast is very clean, but there are not many tourists, but I see many local fishermen fishing in some places. The scenery is a good place, and more importantly, the beach is also very clean with few people.

DEAR张小球
It was natural late to arrive at the Negombo Lagoon. I originally planned to give up, but I still insisted on coming over and seeing it. I didn’t expect to enjoy the beautiful sunset and sunset. It’s really not a trip.
