Description

The influence of three colonial nations has dramatically changed Sri Lanka socially, culturally, and economically. In this interactive online experience live-streamed from the Dutch Fort at Galle, local guide Naren will help you find these influences as they apply to local culture and architecture.

You will thus get to virtually explore the points in space and history where this beautiful old city finds its origins. Additionally, Naren will also amuse you with wonderful facts about how the city got its name and regale you with the thrilling story of what made - and continues to make - it such an irresistible place to be.

Take a walk in the historical Galle Fort! image

The tour will begin with a visit to famous landmarks such as the Sun, Moon, and Star bastions and the Black Fort. As we walk along the streets, we will examine some of the city's oldest buildings. This includes the Dutch Reformed Church, the Anglican Church, Dutch-period Warehouse, Governor House, Dutch Hospital, and typical Dutch houses that are more than 150 years old.

Today Galle has a multi-ethnic, multi-religious population living harmoniously, and they have many rituals, traditions, customs, festivals; I will help you understand these throughout this tour.
