Built in commemoration of Sri Lanka\u2019s independence in 1948, every inch of this architectural monument is dripping with rich history. Venture into the assembly hall inspired by the royal court of the King of Kandy; admire gorgeous wood carvings from the 14th century; and take a peek into the hidden memorial museum.
