监狱旅馆给游客全新体验
The Daily News reported Thursday that Galle prison -- built in a centuries-old fort that is now a United Nations world heritage site -- would be developed into a tourist site%26#46;
Quoting Southern Province governor Kingsley T%26#46; Wickremaratne, the state-owned paper said guests would have to abandon their holiday finery on check-in and would be issued with prison uniforms for the duration of their stay%26#46;
"Unlike the star class hotels, there won’t be luxury rooms fitted with hot water taps %26#46;%26#46;%26#46; the rooms are none other than the prison cells fitted with iron bars," the governor said%26#46;
But the news said a "jailor" would allow guests to keep the keys to their cells and they could move about at will%26#46;
Galle Fort dates back to 1663 during the Dutch settler era and contains some of the finest examples of colonial architecture in the region%26#46;
Property in Galle fort is among the most expensive in Sri Lanka, and a number of grand old buildings -- which used to house the colonial Dutch and later British administrations, have already been converted into luxury hotels or museums%26#46;

想来一次与众不同的全新旅游体验吗？斯里兰卡正在筹划将监狱与旅馆融于一体，修建一座具有历史意义的监狱旅馆。据《每日新闻》报道，建于一个有几百年历史的堡垒（该堡垒已被列为联合国世界遗产）之中的加勒监狱将被开发为一个旅游景点。与星级旅馆不同，该旅馆没有配有热水的豪华房间，相反，有的只是装着铁条的牢房。但所谓的“监狱看守人”允许游客自己保管钥匙，游客可自由活动。
