The Bandaranaike International Conference Center is located near the consular area, not far from Independence Square. The white exterior wall is more prominent in the hot weather, and is said to be China's capital to fund and build, highlighting the deep friendship between the two countries.

When visiting Lake Bella, I went in and visited. There were people selling tight at the entrance, 400 rupees per person, not too expensive. I had to take off my shoes when I entered the temple. Fortunately, I wore chopsticks. If I didn't burn the soles of my feet at more than 30 degrees of heat. There are many Buddha statues in the temple, some very similar to those offered in China, and the president has seen it after reading it.

In Sri Lanka, although compared to China's infrastructure is very backward, there is no modernization and no highway, and there is no high-speed rail all over China. There are three-wheeled motorcycles in the Cultural Revolution period in China. The exhaust of this car is the main leader of the fresh air pollution. Fortunately, Sri Lanka is in the middle of the sea. The sea breeze blows the dirty air to nowhere. I don’t know. Anyway, the air in Sri Lanka is fresh. Always clear. The streets are not without congestion, and there are not many people who do not obey traffic order, which also makes me wonder why? With this question, I began to observe. First of all, I didn't see police officers all over the city and Chinese-like co-policemen (Chinese people like to call them two). So who is managing public transportation in the city? Later, every time I passed the crossroads, I looked for the police, did not see... So strange, is the quality of the Sri Lankans belonging to the Third World so much higher than our Chinese? How many people would obey traffic rules so perfectly in Beijing, without camera surveillance and huge fines?

Many other temples are decent. The place changes a lot every year, many of which are pushed down and built with money from innocent people, which is unacceptable. There is a temple nearby called Vipassana Meditation Center, which is quiet and decent. This temple has many Buddhist believers and organizes charitable activities. This temple is located in Colombo, a good place to learn about Buddhist philosophy. Bodhi Temple in Colombo, Sri Lanka is worth a visit. There are many pure gold Buddha statues and many valuable handicrafts.

An elegant building, built entirely in marble, located opposite the Holy Land of St. Anthony in Kotahena. Area. This is a late 18th century building seen in the name of the Shivan god. Luxurious ornate gatehouse, very beautifully done, with fine design and sculpture. You need slippers when you enter the temple ground. If you are visiting here, be careful with your skirt. On some special festivals, it is very busy.

The Old Parliament Building is a new Baroque building built during British colonial rule. The building faces the Indian Ocean and witnesses a history of British colonial rule. This old Parliament House represents Sri Lanka's history during British colonial rule, witnessing the awakening of national consciousness by the Sri Lankan people under colonial rule in the Buddhist revival movement, witnessing the surging wave of workers' strikes. Visit this old Capitol and feel the colonial history. [View] The nearby scenery is good. You can go for a walk! [Fun] The bird and the crow are everywhere [Cost-effective] No money, just go shopping!
