The Parliament Complex, Colombo, Sri Lanka.





There is a new highway behind the Parliament Complex at Sri Jayawardenapura. It has a long foot-path beautifully laid out for strollers by the side of the lake. Trees are being planted and in a few years time will turn out to be a nice shady avenue.

The Waters Edge was a swamp land near the bifurcation of the roads leading to Baththaramulla and to the New Parliament Complex. It is being developed as a park. It surpasses the old Victoria Park - Vihara Maha Dewi Park, in Colombo 7. It is becoming more and more enchanting day by day.
