The Chinese Embassy in Colombo has clarified reports circulating on social media pertaining to the entry tickets of the Lotus Tower in Colombo.
The first stage of the Lotus Tower also known as Nelum Kulunu will be declared open to the public tomorrow, the 15th of September.
The observation deck and a few areas in the Lotus tower, built for an estimated $113 million, will be open to the public as part of the first stage.
It was announced that tickets will be priced at Rs. 2000 and Rs. 500 to enter the tower, while it will also be open for school tours at a special rate.
However, a ticket claiming to be that of the Lotus Tower was circulated on social media with information on exemptions for Parliamentarians and Chinese Nationals.
Clarifying the issue, the Chinese Embassy in Colombo said that the ticket being circulated on social media currently is fake.
The Embassy further shared an image of the original ticket of the Lotus Tower that will be issued to the public tomorrow. (NewsWire)
