A beautiful temple with a stunning architecture in Colombo. You can spend there an hour looking at different details and figures the temple has. Very peaceful inside and colorful from outside, it attracts people and tourists.
If you are lucky you can see the ceremony inside with music and some performances. It’s very interesting to observe and to listen.
