About Mamas Galle Fort, Galle

Mamas Galle Fort at 76 Leyn Baan Street in the ancient citadel of Galle Fort, is close to the lighthouse, and two minutes on foot from the beach. This beautifully restored mid nineteenth century Chinese shop house is run by a Singhalese Catholic: Jerome Perera and his Buddhist wife Malini.

There are two excellent air-conditioned suites, each of 40 square metres and two single rooms; all have fans. The house offers a dining hall and a ninety square metre roof terrace, with shade and views to the sea over palms and pan-tiled roofs. It is, in the not very humble opinion of Jean Louis Chasse Loup de L'Aubert ' far and away the best value in the fort '.

About Southern Province

The Southern Province of Sri Lanka is a small geographic area consisting of the districts of Galle, Matara and Hambantota. Subsistence farming and fishing is the main source of income for the vast majority of the people of this region.

Important landmarks of the Southern Province include the wildlife sanctuaries of the Yala and Udawalawe National Parks, the holy city of Kataragama, and the ancient cities of Tissamaharama, Kirinda and Galle.
