Colombo is the largest city and the commercial, industrial and cultural capital of Sri Lanka. It is located on the west coast of the island and adjacent to Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte suburb or the parliament capital of Sri Lanka. Colombo is also the administrative capital of Western Province, Sri Lanka and the district capital of Colombo District. Colombo is often referred to as the capital since Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte is a satellite city of Colombo. Colombo is a busy and vibrant place with a mixture of modern life and colonial buildings and ruins[2] with a population of about 752,993 in the city limits. It was the political capital of Sri Lanka, before Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte.

davidsherrington: @perriereynolds any tips? Only got 9 days left. Currently in Kandy getting nailed by Mosquitos.
perriereynolds: I went to unawatuna on the south coast near Galle. Beaches are paradise. I only had three days there but you could travel further along. You could also get a sea plane somewhere it's $125 anywhere around the island.
