How many days do you need in Colombo?

This depends on your interests. A single day or overnight stay suffices if you intend mainly to pass through on your way to other parts of the island. Two to three days allows time to explore neighbourhoods, visit religious and historical sites, and experience local food and markets at a relaxed pace. Longer stays work if you are based here for business or want to use the city as a base for day trips to nearby destinations.
