Horagolla Rainforest in Sri Lanka is a great spot for birdwatching. It’s known for its rich biodiversity, including over 40 bird species such as parakeets, black-crested bulbul, barbets, and the Sri Lanka grey hornbill. The rainforest also hosts mammals like the fishing cat, Sri Lankan spotted chevrotain, and golden jackal. Located about 40 kilometers from Colombo, it’s a wonderful place to explore nature and observe wildlife.

The General Post Office building was built in 1895 opposite the Governor’s residence at the King’s House (currently the President’s House), on King’s Street (currently the Janadhipath Mawatha). This Edwardian style building housed the GPO until recently, when it was moved for security reasons. A new GPO building was built for the Sri Lanka Post. The original building on Queen’s Street was built by Arasi Marikar Wapchi Marikar 1829-1925, who was also involved in building the Colombo Museum, Colombo Customs, Old Town Hall in Pettah, the Galle Face Hotel, Victoria Arcade, Finlay Moir building, the Clock Tower, Batternburg Battery etc
