Colombo is Sri Lanka's capital city, its main port and the country's commercial and financial centre. Just one hour from Kalatyaka International Airport this bustling metropolis is a blend of old and new. Hectic and noisy Colombo is hardly conducive to a relaxing holiday but can make for an explosive introduction to this vibrant country and is ideally placed for a nights stop-over before transfers to a beach resort or the start of an island tour. |
