The Dutch fort
The star-shaped fortress by the lagoon is one of the most distinctive shapes on any Sri Lankan city map. Its pointed bastions are clearly visible.

Jaffna Map Poster & Print
Jaffna is the main city of Sri Lanka's Northern Province and the cultural centre of the island's Tamil population. It lies on a flat, low peninsula, and on a map water surrounds it on almost every side. The Jaffna Lagoon runs along its southern edge, and long causeways cross the shallow water to the islands farther west.
Beside the lagoon is the city's most recognisable feature: a star-shaped fort, first built by the Portuguese and then rebuilt by the Dutch in the seventeenth century. Its angular outline stands out clearly on the map. Inland, the Nallur Kandaswamy temple is the centre of a major annual festival, and the rebuilt Jaffna Public Library is an important symbol for the city.
A Jaffna map poster shows the geometric fort by the lagoon, the dense streets of the town centre, and the roads spreading out across the peninsula. The long straight lines of the causeways extend into open water, giving the composition a strong sense of place.
