Meera Mosque

Unusual looking mosque

This mosque is painted in white near the southern part of the fort of Galle. From the looks you will not say that this is a Mosque probably more to a Christian church. 

Part of the overall Galle experience

On the path around Galle. You will not miss it as it is nicely refreshed. Makes a nice fit to the colonial buildings in the nearby streets.

Pleasant looking building

This is a very pleasant looking building opposite the lighthouse. It is well worth having a look at as you walk along the fortifications of the old fort.

Seen from outside

Really looks like a church, only when you are getting closer you can see there is no cross on top, but the semilune

An elegant structure

If you time your visit well, the end of call to prayers is concluded with a beautiful vocal, which is audible from the street. The melody is haunting & really quite moving.
