Galle is much more than the historic fort and its attractions. The Old Dutch Market in Galle is one of the unique remnants of colonial times. As the name suggests, it is a marketplace, popular amongst locals as well as tourists for selling some of the freshest and exotic produce in all of Galle.
Perhaps one of the oldest markets in Sri Lanka, the Old Dutch Market is also known as Green Market. Exotic fruits such as rambutan and wood-apple, native to the region, are favourites with shoppers. Do visit the Old Dutch market to soak in the sights and sounds of a true-blue Sri Lankan marketplace with a bit of history attached to it.
