Suriyakantha Centre – Casa storica, museo e ristorante

Descrizione

Within an eighteenth-century edifice—the Naranwala Mahawalawwa, once the residence of a Kandyan noble—Suriyakantha stands as a living testament to the dialogue between Dutch colonial architecture and the exquisite artistry of Sinhalese craftsmanship.

Nestled within a lush green sanctuary, shaped by the singular magic of Kandy’s climate — the cultural capital of Sri Lanka — this manor has preserved its soul, opening today to visitors without surrendering a trace of its authenticity.

Its collection, patiently assembled by its founders, the late Rohan de Silva (1950 - 2009) and the late Dr. Jacques Soulié (1393 -2025), brings together traditional furniture, rare books, manuscripts, photographs, as well as antique maps and postcards.

Treasures that bear witness to centuries of dialogue between East and West — a dialogue of which Suriyakantha remains, to this day, a living expression.
