Feel the Sea breeze on top of the Sea- Fort of Galle

If you travel around 125Km from Colombo to the beach you will find an enormously huge granite rock covering the sea which is said to be created by Portuguese in 1588 during their reign in Sri Lanka and later handed over to the Dutch in 1649 onwards. At present this is one of the illustrations to show the European culture in Sri Lanka.

Each and every step you keep on a stone on this rock sense you the Portuguese and Dutch rule in 17th Century. The sea will be lower than your feet; a slight salty wind pushing you towards shore. The sun shines brightly over the ocean as if you to touch the sun with your palm. The sea side wall of the Fort is another unique European culture to be marked.
