Dambulla, Sri Lanka
Heritance Kandalama
Heritance Kandalama sits above a reservoir in Sri Lanka's Cultural Triangle, designed by Geoffrey Bawa and recognized by the Michelin Hotels guide for 2025. The building recedes into the cliff face while the forest grows through and around it, a deliberate dissolution of the boundary between structure and landscape. It is one of the clearest expressions of Bawa's tropical modernism anywhere on the island.
