Galle fort ^ City in background
2011 Galle, Sri Lanka
The stone ramparts of Galle Fort in Sri Lanka overlook a grassy moat and the town's colonial-era clock tower, with the harbor and its ships visible in the distance. The fort's thick walls, built over Portuguese and later Dutch fortifications, remain a well-preserved example of European military architecture on the island's coast.
