Galle, Fort Galle
gilt bis heute als die schönste Stadt Sri Lankas und befindet sich 20 KM von Ihrem Urlaubsort entfernt.
Fort Galle was built by the Portuguese in the 15th century and expanded by the Dutch in the mid-16th century until the English took over Ceylon (Sri Lanka's old name until 1972) from the Dutch in 1796 and used the fort as an administrative center as the port was moved to Colombo. The fortress walls were built exclusively of granite stone and coral, over the fortress wall you can wonderfully walk around the Ford and pass other sights such as the lighthouse, St. Mary's Cathedral, the Historical Mansion Museum, the Maritime Museum and the "Galle National Museum".

The beautiful colonial style houses have now all been lovingly restored.
In the entire Ford there are many coffee shops, restaurants as well small shops, which invite to stroll and linger.
Not far away is the Galle fish market where it is worth stopping to watch the "wild" trade and also to marvel at the diversity of species that the Indian Ocean offers. In the newer part of the city is the fruit and vegetable market, which is also worth seeing with a large selection of exotic fruits.
