EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Anuradhapura Hotel in Anuradhapura, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), during the early 1910s when the British Raj was at its peak. The image presents an elegant colonial-style building, with its red-tiled roof, whitewashed walls, and ornate balustrades adorning the balconies. The hotel, nestled amidst lush greenery, boasts a serene atmosphere, with tall trees lining the pathways and verdant grass stretching out towards the foreground. The Anuradhapura Hotel, located in the North Central Province of Sri Lanka, was a popular destination for British travelers and administrators during the colonial era. The city of Anuradhapura, renowned for its ancient ruins and historical significance, added to the allure of the hotel. The image invites us to imagine the tranquility and grandeur of the era, with its British colonial influence, exotic landscapes, and the promise of adventure and discovery. The photograph, taken circa 1910s, offers a glimpse into the rich history of Sri Lanka during the British colonial rule. The image is a testament to the architectural beauty and the enduring charm of the Anuradhapura Hotel, which continues to attract visitors from around the world even today.
