Galle or Dutch Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site is located in the bay of Galle, southwest coast of Sri Lanka. It’s a historic beautiful cobbled-stone place filled with Portuguese and Dutch era buildings, quaint shops, cafes, and restaurants. It’s a MUST when travelling in Sri Lanka

I stayed in Mirissa which was only an hour local bus ride to Galle. I was blown away with the scene. I wasn’t expecting a European atmosphere. It’s very different from all the places I visited in Sri Lanka. I spent the whole day exploring and relaxing on the beach by the lighthouse. The shops have unique souvenirs and home wares that you can only find in Galle Fort, make sure to check them out too.
