Sri Lanka, Nov. 24 -- The fortified ramparts of the magnificent Galle Fort is testament to the glorious Dutch era in Ceylon. The Fort area still dazzles every visitor with its unique and formidable architecture. The Anglican Church built with solid granite rocks is a stunning structure in the Fort.
