Decsription

<ul>Lunuganga is a country house at Lunuganga estate that belongs to Geoffrey Bawa, the late renowned architecture. It is a fascinating display of Geoffrey Bawa’s architectural vision that now maintained by the Geoffrey Bawa Trust. <br>
<br>The estate was a cinnamon garden during the Dutch period and a rubber plantation in the British period. Geoffrey Bawa brought this 15-acre land in 1949 and developed it as a tropical version of European renaissance gardens. Bawa was cremated and his ashes were buried there.
