no evidence of the Portuguese founders. The Dutch incorporated the Portuguese northern wall in a great
rampart in 1663. A second, taller wall was built inside of it. Between the two walls, a covered passage
connected the central bastion with the Fort’s two half bastions overlooking the sea.
The Dutch also installed a sophisticated drainage system, complete with brick-lined underground sewers
that were flushed twice a day by the high and low tides. The original gate to the fort was by the harbour. It
is still there, marked by the British Coat-of-arms on the front and the Dutch V.O.C. (Vereenigde Oost Indische
Compagnie) with the Coat-of-arms with a rooster crest, on the inner side of the Fort.

Golf courses
Royal Colombo Golf Club
The club house at the Royal Colombo Golf Club is laden with colonial character and by itself is worth the trip from a city hotel. The golf course is unique in its own way, featuring amongst other things, a railway line running through it. Mature trees and water bodies abound, warranting straight if not long hitting to shoot a low score.
Shangri-La Golf Course
Shangri-La golf resort is set amid a vast coconut palm plantation, offering spectacular views and unique challenges for both casual and seasoned players.
The abundance of nature and wildlife, framed by lakes and the beautiful Indian Ocean, sets the scene for an incredible golfing experience.
