Pettah: The Stories Between The Shops

Colombo's most chaotic neighbourhood has been hiding its stories for 12 centuries beneath the shouts of merchants and rumble of hand-pulled carts. Find a bell that outlived three empires, a stone that measured the British road network, and a Civil War veteran who changed Ceylon forever. 

Fair warning: Pettah is loud, crowded and gloriously chaotic - not for the faint of heart. Comfortable shoes and a sense of humour essential. Press play at each stop to hear the full story. Start looking up.

Colombo's stories found me on walks with my mother in her last years. They were hidden in plain sight - in our own neighbourhood. I've been exploring and uncovering them across different neighbourhoods of this fascinating city ever since. Welcome to Colombo Untold.
