Galle

Overview About Galle

Galle One of Sri Lanka's most historically interesting towns, Galle has a rich colonial history, having being occupied by the Dutch, Portuguese and British. The history of Galle dates back to 1505 when a Portuguese fleet bound for the Maldives was blown off course and took shelter in the Galle Harbour. First the Portugese and then the Dutch built forts. In 1663, the Dutch built the 36-hectare Fort, which is now a World Heritage Site. The fort has a unique old world charm with its crumbling architecture, European street names and Dutch churches. The old colonial mansions, narrow streets, and ancient cars roaming the streets make Galle Fort a hauntingly beautiful place to escape into the past. Take a dusk walk around the ramparts to witness one of the loveliest sunsets in the Indian Ocean.
