Day Trip to Galle, Sri Lanka

Visit for more travel and food! After Colombo, Galle is one of the most visited destinations in Sri Lanka. It’s an ancient city with quite a lot to see, do and eat. The first part of my day trip to Galle included eating some delicious roasted peanuts and walking around the famous Galle Fortress. I also walked past the lighthouse. For a view of the city of Galle I climbed up a building and onto the top roof area to get a nice panoramic view. Stopping at the bus station, I sampled a few Sri Lankan speciality snacks known as short eats. Fish and spices are combined then deep friend and called cutlets. They are absolutely wonderful. In the later afternoon I took a short ten minute bus ride to Unawatuna, a beautiful beach just south of Galle. The sunset was stunning as was all the scenery. After a lovely day trip to Galle and the surrounding area, we headed back to Colombo! Music: This video contains royalty free music by Junior Finau.
