1. The Galle Fort, or Dutch Fort as it is also known, is a fortification first built by the Portugese on the Southwestern coast of Sri Lanka. The initial fortifications, which were built in the late 16th century, were quite basic. However the fort underwent extensive modifications in the 17th century by the Dutch, making it one of the most important archeological, architectural and historic monuments to illutrate the European influence in South East Asia between the 16th and 19th centuries. According to a statement by UNESCO the site was recognized as a World Heritage Site for its unique exposition of an urban ensemble which illustrates the interaction of European architecture and South Asian traditions from the 16th to the 19th centuries which is the criterion number four for such recognition.

About Colombo

Colombo, Sri Lankas größte Stadt und Handelshauptstadt, vereint Kolonialbauten, buddhistische Tempel, lebhafte Märkte und eine Strandpromenade.

Galle Face Green, eine lange Rasenfläche am Meer, füllt sich bei Sonnenuntergang über dem Indischen Ozean mit Familien, Drachensteigern und Streetfood-Ständen. In der Nähe bewahrt das Fort-Viertel Kolonialbauten wie das Alte Holländische Hospital, das zu Läden und Restaurants restauriert wurde, und die rot-weiß gestreifte Jami-Ul-Alfar-Moschee ragt über die belebten Marktstraßen von Pettah auf.
