Galle Fort Attractions & Tours — Attraction in Galle

A must visit place in the southern part of Srilanka. This is a beautiful fortress built by the Portuguese and then secured by Dutch during the 17th centuries. It is easily accessible using southern express way so easy to travel from Colombo or if you take the normal route or the train you can enjoy the coastal side of Srilanka because the normal route and the train tracks are going very close to the beach in this route.There are many shops for souvenirs and items, few museums with old antique stuff, among one i came across a very old well in the middle of a old house now converted to a museum. so many interesting things to see around this place and you can spend at least a half a day to a complete day inside this fortress. There are couple of restaurants and cafes too, but could say that they are little expensive compaired with out side places. yet the experience was wonderful. Overall a good place to entertain and to get some knowledge about the old times and the stuff...
