The capital of Sri Lanka, Colombo is the largest city of this island nation. Though a populous city, it is an eclectic mix of modern high rise, historical temples and a disorderly jumble of residential and commercial buildings. As a result, the city of Colombo must be many things to many people, least of all a place for great entertainment and diversion. We look at the legalities of prostitution and adult venues as well as the places to buy sex toys in Colombo.
Prostitution, and all aspects surrounding the trade, is illegal in Colombo. However, the island has a relatively large number of sex workers around 40, with most working in Colombo. Many prostitutes are Sri Lankan but it is very common to find women from India as well as Eastern Asian nations like China, the Philippines and Thailand. Some international escorts operate in the city, notably from Russia. It does also depend on the nationality of the escort with Thai and Chinese girls being cheaper and European escorts being the most expensive.
As in India and many countries STDs are common amongst sex workers but in Sri Lanka, prostitutes do not carry condoms; doing so places them in danger of prosecution if they are picked up by the police so always carry your own if you plan to indulge. The sex industry in Sri Lanka is subject to review by the government who, according to recent reports, are considering legalising some aspects of the trade. It is thought that there are as many as 10, escorts working in and around the Colombo area and most use directories to advertise their services.
Some provide in-calls as well as outcalls. Some hotels in Colombo provide extra services for guests looking for an escort and you can usually arrange this at the front desk. Ask for a special massage at most hotels and you will get a decent looking girl arrive at your room to give you a happy ending, oftentimes with a little more thrown in.
If you find your enquiries at the front desk being met with disapproving denial then try asking a member of domestic staff if they know of anywhere for a good massage. If they take your meaning, they will usually be able to suggest someone for an incall. Instead, the world of prostitution is very hidden with clients and hookers having to maintain discretion in order to avoid detection.
