'The Audience Hall', Kandy.

This building is the 'Audience Hall' of the last King of Kandy. The King received ambassadors to the court in this building. The Kandyan Convention ceding the Kandyan Kingdom to the British was signed here. In the 1960s the Supreme Court held its sessions here. Now it is a protected site.
