Funcenter Colombo - closed down for good

[Gilly]

So, today I've visited the Colombo shopping mall (the biggest mall in Iberia) with one goal - to ride their roller skater. So, after about 1/2 hour of searching for it, I finally had enough and ask some of the mall employees. They said that the Funcenter was located in the second floor, somewhere in the corner, but saddly closed down some 2 months ago.

So, when I arrived back to the hotel I immidiatelly googled about it. Saddly their sayings were right and the area is to be converted in some kind of fashion district/food court.

That's too bad. It took me two different trips for this location to be open. The first time the entire park was shut down for a few months to re-model, the second time it was open, but nobody was there. Really didn't seem like something that was going over so well with the local market. It's too bad. While it was a nice little FEC, although it was nothing special.
