A stunning colonial building. Inside 15 rooms all dedicated to different parts of Sri Lanka’s history.
The main entrance to the "independence Arcade" overlooking Independence Square at dusk. This clock tower building was restored to its former glory early this year. Now housing some of the up market retail stores.

Ibbanwala

Though Ibbanwala may not have many top sights, you can venture to the surrounding area to see attractions like Colombo City Centre and Colombo Town Hall.

Ibbanwala
The Bandaranaike Memorial International Conference Hall (BMICH), is a convention center located in Colombo. Built between 1970 and 1973, the convention center was a gift from the People's Republic of China in memory of Solomon Ridgeway Dias Bandaranaike, Prime Minister of Sri Lanka from 1956 to 1959.
The construction of the Hall was carried out by a joint Sri Lankan and Chinese workforce with a considerable portion of the building materials being imported from China.

In 1998 a small Exhibition Centre, the Sirimavo Bandaranaike Memorial Exhibition Centre, was built on the grounds as a gift from China.
The BMICH premises is managed by the S.W.R.D. Bandaranaike National Memorial Foundation (BNMF) which is chaired by the President of Sri Lanka.
The BNMF has an academic wing specialized in International Relations, Languages & Cultural Studies named "Bandaranaike Centre for International Studies

Colombo, despite it's location alongside the ocean, still has a very industrial feel to it.  For some reason, the contrast of this scene resonated with me.

While Bambalapitiya isn't home to many top sights, Marino Mall and Bellagio Casino are some notable places to visit nearby.
