On the way to Unawatuna beach I dropped by Galle to see one of Sri Lankan UNESCO World Heritage Sites; the old town of Galle. The photo shows All Saints Church which is located inside of the Galle Fort. Galle is located 6.3 degrees north latitude and the capital of Southern Province of Sri Lanka. It's located on a tropical area, but has a small touch of Europe due to Portuguese, Dutch and thus British colonial era. One of them is All Saints church. I don't know much about architecture, but I've heard that it's a Gothic building. One of the breathtaking sites of Sri Lanka.
