From its fort, museums, sunny beaches to its pleasing types of accommodation, the city of Galle radiates the influences of colonialism that date back to the 17th century. Therefore one staying at any of the Galle resorts will be provided with a wealth of opportunities to unravel the mysteries of this ancient sea port in Sri Lanka. Jetwing Kurulubedda with its comfortable villas in Galle would prove to be a good choice in terms of accommodation and facilities.
If you’re into cycling then the many monuments which are some of the finest of tourist attractions in all of Sri Lanka could be easily reached and enjoyed. The ramparts of the iconic Galle Fort would be your first stop where one may pause a while to capture the unending views of the foamy waters of the ocean. An entire day can be reserved just for the task of exploring this multi-cultured city, home to many places of interest. Visit Main Street where the local vendors can be found busily engaged in their daily trading activities. Call at the Dutch churches in the city which are sure to unearth the adventure in you, providing you with a glimpse of how life was back in the day. The National Maritime Museum is yet another pleasing destination where time can be spent savouring the maritime supremacy of the country. Before calling it a day, drop by the beach where a soothing dip in the ocean waters would feel heavenly.
