马塔拉区
马塔拉是位于 斯里兰卡 南海岸的一座城市,距离 科伦坡约160公里。它是斯里兰卡最大的 城市之一。城市中保留了许多斯里兰卡殖民时期的遗迹。第三长的河流 尼尔瓦拉甘加河(蓝河)将老城与新城分开。
在16和18世纪,马塔拉由葡萄牙人和荷兰人统治。该地区的 文化 和 建筑 仍然可见。位于 唐德拉角的著名 灯塔 由荷兰人建造,被认为是斯里兰卡最美丽、最古老的灯塔之一。马塔拉是一座繁忙、繁荣的商业城市,几乎不依赖旅游业,为现代 斯里兰卡 生活提供了一个迷人的窗口。主要景点包括城墙、荷兰建筑、保存完好的 马塔拉堡 和街头生活。
帕拉维杜帕塔寺 是位于城市前方的 鸽子岛(一座小岛)上的相对现代的佛教寺庙。可通过2008年建造的优雅悬索桥到达(替代2004年海啸冲毁的旧桥)。寺庙坐落在美丽的花园中,拥有众多佛像以及 亚当峰 脚印的复制品。
马塔拉堡 由葡萄牙人于1560年建造,1640年被荷兰人大幅重建,发生在占领 加勒之后。堡垒由高大的石墙组成,位于 尼尔瓦拉河泻湖与海洋之间的半岛上。
马塔拉荷兰改革宗教堂 由荷兰人在1706年建造于马塔拉堡内,并在1762年堡垒重建后于1767年进行了大规模改建。
星形堡 位于 尼尔瓦拉河西侧。1761年 马塔拉起义后,由荷兰人建造该堡以保护主堡免受河流攻击。独特的星形堡建设于1765年完成。
