Art and jewelry in Galle
Pedlar’s Inn Gallery is a charming and bohemian art gallery and jewelry shop that’s part of the Pedlar’s Inn complex which also features a cafe, a lovely gelato shop, and a hostel. The gallery features paintings, prints, and photos from mainly local artists, many of which are really quite good, especially the photography. The exhibits change on a fairly regular basis, so if you’re passing by just pop your head in and see what’s being shown.
Inside the Pedlar’s Inn Gallery, there is also a small jewelry shop selling original high-end jewelry to tourists. My wife isn’t very keen on jewelry (yes, I’m the luckiest man on Earth) so we didn’t venture to have a look. Rather, we just hung out on the shady veranda admiring the works on display.
It’s not a major tourist attraction by any means, but it’s a pleasant place to stop by if you’re having a relaxing afternoon just wandering the streets of Galle Fort from cafe to cafe (which, by the way, is not a bad way to spend an afternoon in Galle!).
