Jaffna Fort is massive and boasts incredible, star shaped colonial architecture with stunning views over the lagoon. However, unlike Galle Fort, it does not have cafes, boutique shops, or a bustling interior village.

It is a true historical ruin rather than a lifestyle destination. Walking the scenic ramparts at sunset is a wonderful experience and takes about an hour, but you will not spend an entire afternoon shopping there like in Galle.
