This is only a 50-minute drive from Bandaranaike International Airport via the Colombo to Katunayake Expressway. In close proximity to famous landmarks of Colombo, CCC is built right opposite the historic Beira Lake. It faces the Seema Malaka Temple, which is an iconic architecture of Colombo. Most importantly, it\u2019s a Geoffrey Bawa creation hence both a piece of art and a place of cultural importance.&nbsp; There are many star hotels, restaurants, hospitals, parks, theatres, universities, retail shops and the National Museum around this location. This is close to the Clock Tower and Fort area. <strong>Galle<\/strong> Face Green is as popular as <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lankapropertyweb.com\/area\/mount-lavinia\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mount Lavinia<\/a><\/strong> beach.

The first 5 floors make up the retail section. It has numerous shops of local and international brands, food outlets and a multiplex cinema. This complex is luxurious and spacious, certainly delighting customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is probably why it attracted flocks of people upon opening. They were eager to witness a construction determined in transforming <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lankapropertyweb.com\/area\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Sri Lanka<\/a><\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly 50 high-end brands occupy an area of 200,000 square feet within the mall. Some of the noteworthy brands are Apple, Swarovski, Armani Exchange, The Body Shop, Mango, Charles &amp; Keith, Titan, and Clarks.

This is the first and the biggest multiplex cinema in Colombo. It has 6 screens and around 30 shows are available on an average day. The full seating capacity is 750. Furthermore, movie-goers can enjoy an extraordinary experience here in contrast to the other cinemas in the city. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The seating arrangement forms an amphitheatre-style, allowing no room for complaints from shorter people sitting at the back. This offers perfect visibility from any row. The impressive sound system gives an almost reel-to-real life experience. Another interesting element about the cinema is the exclusive 24-seater VIP theatre. Comfort is given thorough consideration with how the seats are made for a relaxed movie-watching time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even differently-abled individuals can enjoy comfortably, thanks to how certain features are in place to offer them ease.

It has cuisines from Asia \u2013 Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia; Far East to China and Japan and even a MacDonald\u2019s. Besides, there are exclusive dessert stations to cater to the sweet tooth cravings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two sections in the Food Studio. One is the indoor area, ideal for get-togethers, business meetings or even a date. The other is an outdoor area with a remarkable view of the Beira Lake and the surrounding areas. It also has an island bar. The day time ambiance is relaxed and friendly. But the evenings are even more magical.
