Situé juste au sud du Fort, Galle Face Green est un long et étroit parc face à l'océan Indien. Il regorge de stands de nourriture et de locaux en semaine et le week-end, car c'est un lieu de rencontre populaire pour se détendre. Un bras étroit du lac Beira sépare ce quartier de l'île aux Esclaves, une péninsule où les Hollandais emprisonnaient les esclaves de leurs colonies asiatiques. Galle Road, le long boulevard du front de mer de Colombo, s'étend au sud de Galle Face Green, devenant finalement la principale route côtière menant à Galle et au Sud profond. Toujours encombrée et dépourvue de charme, elle abrite néanmoins certains des meilleurs centres commerciaux et plusieurs bâtiments importants, dont la résidence officielle du Premier ministre sri-lankais, l'ambassade des États-Unis, le Haut-Commissariat britannique et certains des meilleurs hôtels cinq étoiles de la ville.
