EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1910s, showcases the serene beauty of Kandy Lake in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and the elegant Queens Hotel that once stood along its shores. The image transports us back in time to the colonial era of the British Raj in India, where Ceylon was a prized possession of the British Empire. The reflection on the tranquil waters of Kandy Lake mirrors the grandeur of the Queens Hotel, its whitewashed walls and red-tiled roof standing out against the lush greenery of the surrounding trees. The trees, with their vibrant foliage, frame the scene and add to the picturesque setting. Kandy, the second largest city in Sri Lanka, was a popular destination for British travelers during this period. The city was known for its rich cultural heritage, including the Temple of the Tooth, a sacred Buddhist site. The construction of the Queens Hotel in 1897 catered to the growing number of tourists, providing them with luxurious accommodations and a breathtaking view of Kandy Lake. The photograph captures the harmony between the natural beauty of the lake and the man-made elegance of the hotel, a testament to the colonial influence on the region during this time. The image offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to imagine the sights, sounds, and experiences of a bygone era.
