Colombo Districts for Tourists: Where to Walk Safely and Interesting, and Where It's Better Not to Go?

The most interesting and safe districts for tourists are Colombo Fort (business center with colonial architecture), Pettah (atmospheric market where you need to watch your wallet), and the upscale Colombo-7 (Kolpiti-Baambalapiti) with restaurants and shops.
It's most convenient to walk on foot in Fort and Colombo-7. Pettah is a very noisy and crowded district, be prepared for crowds. Avoid remote unlit streets and beaches at night. Do not carry all valuables and large sums of money with you, leave them in the hotel safe. But overall, Colombo, despite its seemingly 'unfavorable' appearance at first glance, is actually quite a safe place at any time, although you certainly wouldn't call it cozy and clean.
