  • Fort Colombo was een fort gebouwd door de Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie. Het is nu de wijk Fort (Sinhala: කොටුව, Kotuwa: Tamil: கோட்டை, Kōṭṭai) in Colombo, de economische hoofdstad van Sri Lanka. Het is het hart van het zakencentrum van het moderne Colombo, met voornamelijk gebouwen uit de Britse tijd en later. Op deze plek stond oorspronkelijk een fort dat gebouwd werd door de Portugezen en dat later is overgenomen door de VOC. Van fortificaties is niet zoveel meer te bekennen. De geest ervan is nog te ontwaren in het stratenpatroon en hier en daar staan willekeurige restanten tussen modernere bebouwing. (nl)
