EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the serene beauty of the Ancient City Baths in Anuradhapura, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), circa 1910. The image presents a tranquil scene of the sunken pools, surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees. The intricately carved stone structures, with their ornate columns and intricate designs, exude an air of ancient grandeur. The pools, once used for religious and social bathing rituals, are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the region. The British colonial influence is evident in the photograph, with the presence of a few European tourists, dressed in their summer attire, enjoying a leisurely swim. The steps leading into the pools are filled with locals, both men and women, engaging in their daily bathing routines. The scene is a fascinating blend of the old and the new, the ancient and the modern, reflecting the complex interplay of history, culture, and colonialism in Ceylon during the early 20th century. Located in the North Central Province of Sri Lanka, Anuradhapura was an important city in ancient Sri Lanka, serving as the capital from the 4th century BC to the 11th century AD. The city is renowned for its well-preserved ruins of ancient temples, monasteries, and palaces, making it a popular tourist destination and an essential part of Sri Lanka's cultural heritage.
