Independence Square, Colombo Overview

Located in the Cinnamon Gardens district, Independence Square was built in 1948 to commemorate Sri Lanka gaining independence from the British Empire. The present-day square includes manicured fountain gardens, ponds, and the grand Independence Memorial Hall, immortalizing those who fought to preserve the Sri Lankan identity during colonisation. It is a popular picnic spot.
