Message from João Petersen

The Old Parliament Building in Sri Lanka is a historic gem nestled in Colombo Fort, overlooking the sea. Once a hub of political decisions, it now houses the Presidential Secretariat, adding a touch of grandeur to its colonial charm. Standing tall next to the President's House and the General Treasury Building, this iconic structure is like a living history book, connecting visitors to the nation's governance epicenter. It's a must-see spot for those who love a good dose of architectural nostalgia mixed with a hint of political intrigue. Unfortunately, it's not open to the public.
