In the south we stayed in Talalla, Ahanghama and Galle.
I only had one day in Galle Fort and I wish I'd had more time. I'd expected the fort to be a touristy destination but it was beautiful and an actual place where Sri Lankans live, work and play. Divers jumped off of old outcrops of the fort, Muslims streamed to the mosque for call to prayer and young couples hid out on benches behind umbrellas in the hidden nooks of the fort.
