Commercial capital Colombo is a vibrant city of wayside Bazaars offering goods at discounted prices, expensive shopping malls, colonial buildings and bullock carts crawling beside modern automobiles. Nightclubs, casinos and an array of bars entertain the night hawkers. Flashy neon signs tearing up the night sky down Galle road and parallel Duplication road offer Italian, French, German, Japanese, Thai, Korean, Pakistani, Indian and Chinese cuisine for the hungry travelers. Away from the deafening noise of traffic some solace can be found amongst the towering trees of the Victoria Park.
