Galle Face Green
Galle Face Green is a 5-hectare ocean-side urban park in the center of Colombo, Sri Lanka's financial and business capital, that spans 500 meters along the shore. It is a great area to relax, to have a good time with other Sri Lankans, day or night. A huge grassy area, separate from the shore, is used for picnics and games. It is recommended for you to visit on a Friday or Saturday night for the most energy.
You can relax on the beach and swim, or sail a kite in the constant breeze. There are constantly pick-up games of football or cricket going on, so you can participate. Vendors and restaurants line the beach, while the region beyond it is lined with hotels ranging in price from budget to luxury. Galle Face Green is located in the center of Colombo's downtown district, directly across from Fort. The skyline is behind you, and the sea is ahead of you. This location is situated between Galle Road and the Indian Ocean.
