GET A FEEL FOR THE CITY
Life in Colombo.
Colombo is Sri Lanka's commercial capital, a coastal city where most offices, embassies and international schools are concentrated. Kollupitiya, Bambalapitiya and Wellawatte along Galle Road and Cinnamon Gardens inland are popular with professionals and expats, while Rajagiriya to the east and Mount Lavinia to the south offer quieter suburban living. Coastal trains run south from Fort station, and Bandaranaike International Airport is about 30 km north at Katunayake.
