Galle Fort, in the Bay of Galle on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka, was built first in 1588 by the Portuguese, then extensively fortified by the Dutch during the 17th century from 1649 onwards. It is a historical, archaeological and architectural heritage monument, which even after more than 423 years maintains a polished appearance, due to extensive reconstruction work done by Archaeological Department of Sri Lanka.
The fort has a colourful history, and today has a multi-ethnic and multi-religious population. The Sri Lankan government and many Dutch people who still own some of the properties inside the fort are looking at making this one of the modern wonders of the world. The heritage value of the fort has been recognized by the UNESCO and the site has been inscribed as a cultural heritage UNESCO World Heritage Site under criteria iv, 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."
Galle was known as Gimhathiththa (although Ibn Batuta in the 14th century refers to it as Qali) before the arrival of the Portuguese in the 16th century, when it was the main port on the island. Galle reached the height of its development in the 18th century, during the Dutch colonial period. Galle is the best example of a fortified city built by the Portuguese in South and Southeast Asia, showing the interaction between Portuguesearchitectural styles and native traditions. The city was extensively fortified by the Dutch during the 17th century from 1649 onwards. The Galle fort is a world heritage site and is the largest remaining fortress in Asia built by European occupiers.

History Of Galle Fort -
Galle Fort (Sinhala: ගාලු කොටුව Galu Kotuwa; Tamil: காலிக் கோட்டை, romanized: Kālik Kōṭṭai), in the Bay of Galle on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka, was built first in 1588 by the Portuguese, then extensively fortified by the Dutch during the 17th century from 1649 onwards. It is a historical, archaeological and architectural heritage monument, which even after more than 432 years maintains a polished appearance, due to extensive reconstruction work done by Archaeological Department of Sri Lanka.[1]
The fort has a colourful history, and today has a multi-ethnic and multi-religious population.[2][3][4] The Sri Lankan government and many Dutch people who still own some of the properties inside the fort are looking at making this one of the modern wonders of the world.[4][5] The heritage value of the fort has been recognized by the UNESCO and the site has been inscribed as a cultural heritage UNESCO World Heritage Site under criteria iv, 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."[3]
The Galle Fort, also known as the Dutch Fort or the "Ramparts of Galle", withstood the Boxing Day tsunami which damaged part of coastal area Galle town. It has been since restored.[2]

Welcome to Galle, Sri Lanka! 🇱🇰✌🏼
This beautiful colonial town in southern Sri Lanka stole our hearts and it was exactly what we needed after that hectic first day driving our little tuktuk!
Galle is probably the most visited place in all of Sri Lanka and you can really tell why. It's filled with beautiful boutique hotels, great shopping, beautiful secluded beaches and nice restaurants and bars. But if you step outside of the center, it also has a great local market and of course, the friendly locals are everywhere! We hope you enjoy this Galle Sri Lanka vlog!
This has quickly become one of our favorite travel series because of all the amazing local interactions we've had. And well, of course Sri Lanka is such a beautiful country.
Thanks so much for watching and for being here supporting our little channel. See you in the next episode!

Sri Lanka’s coastal town Galle is a favorite among travelers! And for good reason. We just spent 1 month in Sri Lanka, and Galle City quickly became of our favorite places. This little colonial coastal town is filled with history and beautiful architecture.

Why You Shouldn't Miss Galle, Sri Lanka
Just a short drive from Hikkaduwa is a small town called Galle. This coastal Sri Lankan town is most well known for the Galle Fort which was a stronghold built by the Portuguese in the 1500's, but is now filled with shops and restaurants for tourists visiting Sri Lanka. Before heading to Galle Fort, we chose to go for a surf lesson with our good friend (and surf instructor) Amila!
We surfed at Dewata Beach in Galle which is a great place for beginner surfers because the bay is well protected from the outside, meaning the waves aren't too intense! And actually WE didn't surf... Mico surfed... I explain why I am not able to surf in the video :) He had an awesome time and did really well!! If you're in need of a surf instructor in the Hikkaduwa/Galle area, send a message to Amila @bananalea...

A Day in Galle Sri Lanka (HONEST Guide)
Although the town is charming and quaint, it's also.....overpriced! Our honest suggestion: make Galle (fort area) a day trip- don't stay there. The area is easily accessible from nearby beach-towns and you can experience it all in 1 day.

Sri Lanka’s coastal town Galle is a favorite among travelers! And for good reason. We just spent 1 month in Sri Lanka, and Galle City quickly became of our favorite places. This little colonial coastal town is filled with history and beautiful architecture.
- This is where we show them everything we did in Galle and Unawatuna. We slept at the Amari Hotel for 3 or 4 days. Before we headed back home to Colombo and back home. Galle Fort is one of the highlights you should visit. But in today’s episode, I have made a list of the Top 9 things you should do if you are in Galle and Unawatuna. Galle Dog Care Clinic is also included in this list, as their work is so important and deserves to be highlighted.
If you want to help the dogs in Sri Lanka, please visit this link to donate: https://www.dogcare-clinic.com/en/
We've had such an amazing time exploring everything Sri Lanka has to offer, and I'm so happy you guys have enjoyed this series! Thank you so much to everyone who tuned in every week for the new episodes, and I’m so grateful to have grown this little community to over 20.000 people! Let me know which episode was your favorite, and where you are watching from? I would love to know.
Stay safe.

You might be astounded to know that there are a number of places to visit in Galle which could make you extend your trip by a few more days to visit this historic city. Walking through the streets of Galle is like walking into history when you soak in the past via its colonial splendours. You would need an entire day to visit the Galle Dutch Fort to not just witness the life and areas that still exist there, but to cover all the other monuments that are stationed within this establishment.

Galle Fort is a must visit destination in Sri Lanka whether you choose to stay overnight or just as a day trip. Initially founded by the Portuguese and fortified by the Dutch, Galle Fort is now an important historic and cultural stop when exploring the southern coast of the country. In this video I give you a walking tour of the fort and its amazing views of the Indian Ocean, as well as give some suggestions of some great attractions and restaurants to check out in your time there. If you would like more extensive suggestions of where to go all over the country, please check out my travel guide up above on my website!

Arriving in Galle, I could not believe I did not get the chance to visit this side of the country after 2 previous visits to Sri Lanka. I started my trip with amazing accommodations and went out to the streets to explore, shop, and interact with the locals. Sharing the first part of the video here!

Just a short drive from Hikkaduwa is a small town called Galle. This coastal Sri Lankan town is most well known for the Galle Fort which was a stronghold built by the Portuguese in the 1500's, but is now filled with shops and restaurants for tourists visiting Sri Lanka. Before heading to Galle Fort, we chose to go for a surf lesson with our good friend (and surf instructor) Amila!
We surfed at Dewata Beach in Galle which is a great place for beginner surfers because the bay is well protected from the outside, meaning the waves aren't too intense! And actually WE didn't surf... Mico surfed... I explain why I am not able to surf in the video :) He had an awesome time and did really well!! If you're in need of a surf instructor in the Hikkaduwa/Galle area, send a message to Amila @bananaleaf_surf - he's amazing!
We worked up a serious appetite surfing (and sitting) and accidentally ordered ourselves an incredible Sri Lankan meal for lunch!! Seriously, this lunch was unreal. We must have had about 10 different dishes to share between the two of us. Rice and curry in Sri Lanka is on a whole other level. If we could relive one meal for the rest of our lives, it would probably be this lunch. If you want to try Sri Lankan rice and curry during your time in the country, we definitely recommend Punto Cafe in Galle Fort.
There is also lots of great shopping in Galle, although we didn't have as much luck as we'd hoped we would! So instead we hopped up onto the Fort and climbed around the perimeter, which is something you have to do if you come to Galle! The sights are so beautiful that we even stumbled upon a crew filming something while we were there!
Galle is a great place to spend one day when you are on the South Coast of Sri Lanka. We highly recommend following in our footsteps if you want to have the perfect day in Galle. It's a great place to spend a few relaxing hours before or after a surf lesson and we definitely recommend a visit, especially if you are in nearby Hikkaduwa, Unawatuna, or Ahangama.
If you enjoy our videos and want to give us an extra special thank you, we would love to have you become a channel member! You'll get lots of special perks and behind the scenes content in exchange for supporting us with a few dollars each month :) https://www.youtube.com/nicoleandmico/join

If you like learning about unique places, new cultures and different foods, then come follow our adventure as we explore all our beautiful planet has to offer.

If you want to try Sri Lankan rice and curry during your time in the country, we definitely recommend Punto Cafe in Galle Fort.
There is also lots of great shopping in Galle, although we didn't have as much luck as we'd hoped we would! So instead we hopped up onto the Fort and climbed around the perimeter, which is something you have to do if you come to Galle! The sights are so beautiful that we even stumbled upon a crew filming something while we were there!
Galle is a great place to spend one day when you are on the South Coast of Sri Lanka. We highly recommend following in our footsteps if you want to have the perfect day in Galle. It's a great place to spend a few relaxing hours before or after a surf lesson and we definitely recommend a visit, especially if you are in nearby Hikkaduwa, Unawatuna, or Ahangama.

A popular tourist place in Sri Lanka is Galle Fort. Originally built by the Dutch this piece of history adds a certain charm from a bygone era.
So what is there to do at Galle Fort? Simply put there is the lighthouse and the clock tower. That is pretty much it. A beautiful maze of streets can pass on an hour or two but won't take you long to get around.
How much is it to eat and drink at Galle Fort? Expensive by Sri Lankan standards and compared to other resorts but we show you prices in the vlog.
Is Galle Fort worth visiting? You'll have to watch and find out!

History Of Galle Fort -
Galle Fort (Sinhala: ගාලු කොටුව Galu Kotuwa; Tamil: காலிக் கோட்டை, romanized: Kālik Kōṭṭai), in the Bay of Galle on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka, was built first in 1588 by the Portuguese, then extensively fortified by the Dutch during the 17th century from 1649 onwards. It is a historical, archaeological and architectural heritage monument, which even after more than 432 years maintains a polished appearance, due to extensive reconstruction work done by Archaeological Department of Sri Lanka.[1]
The fort has a colourful history, and today has a multi-ethnic and multi-religious population.[2][3][4] The Sri Lankan government and many Dutch people who still own some of the properties inside the fort are looking at making this one of the modern wonders of the world.[4][5] The heritage value of the fort has been recognized by the UNESCO and the site has been inscribed as a cultural heritage UNESCO World Heritage Site under criteria iv, 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."[3]
The Galle Fort, also known as the Dutch Fort or the "Ramparts of Galle", withstood the Boxing Day tsunami which damaged part of coastal area Galle town. It has been since restored.[2]
The Galle Fort is a classic neighbourhood in the south of Sri Lanka that has remained unchanged since colonial times. Experience delicious fusion cuisine and plenty of old-world charm. Take a moment to speak to the locals and learn their colourful history!

Welcome to Galle, Sri Lanka! 🇱🇰✌🏼
This beautiful colonial town in southern Sri Lanka stole our hearts and it was exactly what we needed after that hectic first day driving our little tuktuk!
Galle is probably the most visited place in all of Sri Lanka and you can really tell why. It's filled with beautiful boutique hotels, great shopping, beautiful secluded beaches and nice restaurants and bars. But if you step outside of the center, it also has a great local market and of course, the friendly locals are everywhere! We hope you enjoy this Galle Sri Lanka vlog!
This has quickly become one of our favorite travel series because of all the amazing local interactions we've had. And well, of course Sri Lanka is such a beautiful country.
Thanks so much for watching and for being here supporting our little channel. See you in the next episode!

Sri Lanka’s coastal town Galle is a favorite among travelers! And for good reason. We just spent 1 month in Sri Lanka, and Galle City quickly became of our favorite places. This little colonial coastal town is filled with history and beautiful architecture.
- This is where we show them everything we did in Galle and Unawatuna. We slept at the Amari Hotel for 3 or 4 days. Before we headed back home to Colombo and back home. Galle Fort is one of the highlights you should visit. But in today’s episode, I have made a list of the Top 9 things you should do if you are in Galle and Unawatuna. Galle Dog Care Clinic is also included in this list, as their work is so important and deserves to be highlighted.
If you want to help the dogs in Sri Lanka, please visit this link to donate: https://www.dogcare-clinic.com/en/
We've had such an amazing time exploring everything Sri Lanka has to offer, and I'm so happy you guys have enjoyed this series! Thank you so much to everyone who tuned in every week for the new episodes, and I’m so grateful to have grown this little community to over 20.000 people! Let me know which episode was your favorite, and where you are watching from? I would love to know.
Stay safe.
Love Camilla

Galle Dutch Fort, Dutch Reformed Church, The National Museum of Galle, Jungle Beach, Japanese Peace Pagoda, Old Gate, Galle Fort, Historical Mansion Museum, Galle Fort Clock Tower, Sea Turtle Hatchery, Maritime Museum, Galle Lighthouse, St Joseph’s Chapel, St. Mary's Cathedral, Mahamodara Sea Turtle Hatchery Centre and many more places.
You might be astounded to know that there are a number of places to visit in Galle which could make you extend your trip by a few more days to visit this historic city. Walking through the streets of Galle is like walking into history when you soak in the past via its colonial splendours. You would need an entire day to visit the Galle Dutch Fort to not just witness the life and areas that still exist there, but to cover all the other monuments that are stationed within this establishment.
We travelled down to the famous UNESCO World Heritage Site of Galle Fort and found the absolute best things to do in Galle.
There are so many things to do in Galle, so for a full list take a look at our article here - https://twotalltravellers.com/things-to-do-in-galle/

Arriving in Galle, I could not believe I did not get the chance to visit this side of the country after 2 previous visits to Sri Lanka. I started my trip with amazing accommodations and went out to the streets to explore, shop, and interact with the locals. Sharing the first part of the video here!

Just a short drive from Hikkaduwa is a small town called Galle. This coastal Sri Lankan town is most well known for the Galle Fort which was a stronghold built by the Portuguese in the 1500's, but is now filled with shops and restaurants for tourists visiting Sri Lanka. Before heading to Galle Fort, we chose to go for a surf lesson with our good friend (and surf instructor) Amila!
We surfed at Dewata Beach in Galle which is a great place for beginner surfers because the bay is well protected from the outside, meaning the waves aren't too intense! And actually WE didn't surf... Mico surfed... I explain why I am not able to surf in the video :) He had an awesome time and did really well!! If you're in need of a surf instructor in the Hikkaduwa/Galle area, send a message to Amila @bananaleaf_surf - he's amazing!
We worked up a serious appetite surfing (and sitting) and accidentally ordered ourselves an incredible Sri Lankan meal for lunch!! Seriously, this lunch was unreal. We must have had about 10 different dishes to share between the two of us. Rice and curry in Sri Lanka is on a whole other level. If we could relive one meal for the rest of our lives, it would probably be this lunch. If you want to try Sri Lankan rice and curry during your time in the country, we definitely recommend Punto Cafe in Galle Fort.
There is also lots of great shopping in Galle, although we didn't have as much luck as we'd hoped we would! So instead we hopped up onto the Fort and climbed around the perimeter, which is something you have to do if you come to Galle! The sights are so beautiful that we even stumbled upon a crew filming something while we were there!
Galle is a great place to spend one day when you are on the South Coast of Sri Lanka. We highly recommend following in our footsteps if you want to have the perfect day in Galle. It's a great place to spend a few relaxing hours before or after a surf lesson and we definitely recommend a visit, especially if you are in nearby Hikkaduwa, Unawatuna, or Ahangama.

Although the town is charming and quaint, it's also.....overpriced! Our honest suggestion: make Galle (fort area) a day trip- don't stay there. The area is easily accessible from nearby beach-towns and you can experience it all in 1 day.
