Ayurveda Teaching Hospital
This is the oldest and largest government Ayurvedic hospital in the country. Founded in 1929 it was shifted to the present site at Cotta road, Boralla, exactly four miles from the centre of the city of Colombo, in 1931. Additional buildings were constructed as the need for expansion of the hospital arose. The administration block and the wards5, 7, 8, and 9, were constructed in 1959. The four strayed “Pancha karma” building was constructed in 1971.
