Old Town of Galle and its Fortifications,Sri Lanka.

Sri Lankans’ greet you with ‘Ayubowan’, a word that means much more than just ‘hello’. It means, may you have long life and be happy always.
Galle is the best example of a fortified city built by Europeans in South and South-East Asia, showing the interaction between European architectural styles and South Asian traditions.It was founded by Portuguese in 16th century.
