Galle Face Hotel, Ceylon (Now Sri Lanka): A Window to the Past This evocative photograph captures the grandeur of the Galle Face Hotel in Colombo, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), circa 1890s. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and colonial charm of Asia. The Galle Face Hotel, an iconic landmark, is situated along the coast, overlooking the Indian Ocean. The building, with its red-tiled roof and whitewashed walls, stands proudly against the backdrop of a lush, green lawn. The path leading to the hotel is lined with tall, shady trees, and a road runs parallel to the coastline. The hotel, a symbol of colonial architecture, was built in 1864 and is one of the oldest and most distinguished hotels in Asia. It has been a favorite among travelers for over a century, offering a unique blend of history, culture, and hospitality. The photograph showcases the hotel's elegant verandah, where guests would have enjoyed the cool sea breeze and breathtaking views of the ocean. The grassy lawn, dotted with palm trees, would have been a popular spot for leisurely strolls and picnics. The Galle Face Hotel has played host to numerous dignitaries, including Sir Thomas Moore, the British Governor of Ceylon, and Mahatma Gandhi, who stayed there during his visit to the country in 1934. This photograph is a testament to the enduring charm of the Galle Face Hotel and its rich history, which continues to draw visitors from around the world. The hotel, with its timeless beauty and colonial elegance, remains an iconic symbol of Sri Lanka's proud past.
