Colombo

The Bandaranaike Memorial International Conference Hall (BMICH), is a convention center located in Colombo. Built between 1970 and 1973, the convention center was a gift from the People's Republic of China in memory of Solomon Ridgeway Dias Bandaranaike, Prime Minister of Sri Lanka from 1956 to 1959.
The construction of the Hall was carried out by a joint Sri Lankan and Chinese workforce with a considerable portion of the building materials being imported from China.

In 1998 a small Exhibition Centre, the Sirimavo Bandaranaike Memorial Exhibition Centre, was built on the grounds as a gift from China.
The BMICH premises is managed by the S.W.R.D. Bandaranaike National Memorial Foundation (BNMF) which is chaired by the President of Sri Lanka.
The BNMF has an academic wing specialized in International Relations, Languages & Cultural Studies named "Bandaranaike Centre for International Studies (BCIS)" located within the BMICH premises.

In the picture is a Sweet Croffle. A must try at Plus Nine Four.

Cool Fact: Plus Nine Four focuses on incorporating Sri Lankan flavours into their items and was named after our country code, +94!

Walking into Plus Nine Four, I felt right at home! It had a very homely atmosphere, and there are a few tables outside and a few inside, so you can sit where you prefer.

The service was fantastic since within a minute of taking my seat, I was brought a menu. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, going to great lengths to cater to our needs.

At check-in, we were told our room was not ready even though we arrived 2 hrs after check in time, when I questioned why that was the case for a “5 star” hotel, they miraculously found another room available to give us, figure that! There were plenty of friendly staff, but they were not attentive. ...
