The new feature, available on the MaRadha Colombo website, provides travellers with an interactive view of the city’s best interest points, with useful information such as recommended stay duration and entry costs.
Planning Your Stay in Colombo with Ease
The MaRadha travel guide lists all of Colombo’s major attractions, from historical landmarks like the Independence Memorial Hall and the Gangaramaya Temple to shopping destinations such as Pettah Market and Arcade Independence Square. Each destination is thoroughly described, offering visitors an opportunity to better plan and make the most of their stay in Colombo.
Tourism in Sri Lanka is on the rise, with the country welcoming 2.3 million tourists in 2023 alone, marking a significant rebound from the pandemic years. The growing interest in Sri Lanka’s natural beauty and cultural allure has earned Colombo a top spot in the list of Asia’s must-visit. Hotel MaRadha Colombo’s new travel guide supports this growth by helping guests experience the city’s cultural charm without the stress of unplanned travel.
A Guide for Every Kind of Tourist
According to statistics from the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority, shopping remains a favourite activity among tourists, accounting for around 30% of their travelling expenses. MaRadha Colombo’s travel guide identifies the best shopping districts and markets, with the best spots for both luxury and budget shopping. The guide includes locations such as Odel, Barefoot, and the local handicraft boutiques, giving tourists diverse options to bring home a piece of Sri Lanka.
Integration with Colombo City Tour
The travel guide system is user-friendly and accessible through mobile devices, so that guests can carry all essential information in their pockets. The guide features interactive maps, recommended visit durations, and even tips on the best times to visit each attraction. Furthermore, it is linked to MaRadha’s own Colombo City Tour.
