Where to stay in Colombo 05

If you are a Geek Fan, Geek HQ is the place to go!! In the picture are both Veg and Non Veg Options; Geek HQ 's special burger named Its Cloebbrin Time, Chewie Sandwich the non veg option and Red's Big Fries. This all came to a total of around 4000LKR which was quite reasonable and was shared among 4 of us! Tip - Get their Special Burger and it's so huge that it could be shared among 3 for sure.#Trover #Foodie #SriLanka #BurgersandFries

Havelock Town

3/5(2 area reviews)

While visiting Havelock Town, you might make a stop by sights like Isipathanaramaya Buddhist Temple and Raux Brothers.

Havelock Town
Archade Independence Square at Colombo

Thimbirigasyaya

If you're spending some time in Thimbirigasyaya, Bandaranaike Memorial International Conference Hall and Arcade Independence Square are top sights worth seeing.

Thimbirigasyaya
Only a very few of us can truly relate to this genre of music. This was a free gig that was open to anyone and everyone. Given that there were 2 other events happening in Colombo and Mount Lavinia, we ended up having this hardcore fans who enjoyed the fraternity on a Saturday evening. The only venue the rock community can get these days. But seems like this would be the last few concerts that we get to do here. The government is renovating the place, so they say. Till then we need to find another location.

Kirula

5/5(1 area review)

"WOW. We walked in and realized that there are security cameras everywhere and the fact that the caretaker was to stay with us is not advertised at all.

Gangaramaya temple is situated just 1km away from the heart of Colombo. I highly recommend you to visit this place if you find yourself in Sri Lanka. You will witness thousands of temples while you are traveling around Sri Lanka. All those temples are influenced by Theravada. But, Gangaramaya temple is influenced by a mixture of Theravada and Mahayana and it's really a nice place.
