I'm not going to tell you that you will be visiting a gothic middle age European superb church, it's a church worth visiting because of its architectural design outside and simply because there aren't so many big churches in Sri Lanka. Try to see it on Sundays when it's crowded, kids are playing and old people are praying. It is somewhere nice and peaceful to be for half an hour.
