I visited Galle on a half-day trip from the beaches of southern Sri Lanka. The heart of the city is its Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a place where cobbled streets, colonial buildings, cafes, art galleries, and open views of the Indian Ocean coexist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's a very walkable area, ideal for a leisurely stroll and letting yourself be guided more by the atmosphere than by a list of attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post I'm going to tell you what to see in Galle, what I thought of the place, how much time you should spend there, and whether, from my point of view, it's worth including in an itinerary for southern Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n\n\n
