Galle Fort - UNESCO world Heritage Site
As economic development in Sri Lanka began to take place in the 1990's Galle Fort was identified by the Sri Lankan government as one of the country's key cultural and heritage tourism destinations and today it is considered one of the best examples of a living fortified city built by Europeans in South and South East Asia.
Explore the colourful & complex history, dominated by over four hundred years of European rule. The hotel can provide you with a map as well as a shopping & eating guide, to ensure that you discover the best of this Fort.
