Fabulous Galle Fort
Clock tower and fort walls

Man and nature have joined forces in Galle Fort ( Click here ) to produce an archi-
tectural work of art. The Dutch built the streets and buildings, the Sri Lankans ad-
ded the colour and style, and then nature got busy covering it in a gentle layer of
tropical vegetation, humidity and salty air. The result is an enchanting old town
that is home to dozens of art galleries, quirky shops, and boutique cafes and
guesthouses plus some splendid hotels. For tourists, it's without doubt the number
one urban attraction in the country.
