Day 2: Kalutara / Galle / Kalutara
From the early days, Sri Lanka's central position in the Indian Ocean along maritime trading routes made it an important trade center. Galle, on the south side of the island, had become a prominent port by the 14th century. Ships from throughout Asia – China, Persia, and India – stopped here. In addition to its importance as a stop on the trade route, the island also attracted traders in search of natural resources – pearls, ivory and spices. Galle became the 17th century center for Dutch rule, which is evident in the Dutch-style monuments, ramparts and forts. The town is known for ebony carving and delicate handmade lace.
