Summary
| Description |
English: This view of the outer wall from across the moat, illustrates how formidable the defenses would have seemed to an attacker. The fort's star shape covers all angles of fire, from the cannon ports that are cut into the wall. This, the only star fort in Lanka, seems quite state-of-the-art for its time. |
