👍👍 This route is beautiful. It gives feeling like in journey to a forest. Absolutely yes it is jungle way route towards Sri Padaya. It's easy way to pilgrimage Sri padaya. Nevertheless getting down is not same. However this is ancient route to Sri padaya and most beautiful one.

👍👍 Another calm and cool environment situated in Galle. In the rainy days there are too many leaches. other than that there are not too much. but you have to prepare for it.

👍👍 Kumari ella is 4m (13 ft) waterfall in Puwakpitiya, Avissawella; just about an hour and a half of travel time from Colombo. This little cascade has a deep plunge pool at its base that is extremely dangerous to swim in. Kumari ella gains its name from Kumari, the daughter of King Rajasinghe I of Sita...

👍👍 Highly recommended when you visit "Madhu river". The best service money can buy. Really helpful and friendly staff members (guides). The boats are also in good condition. You can enjoy a hassle free and exiting ride around the place. ❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥 10/10 from me 🔥❤️

👍👍 There are two separate water treatment plants called labugama and kalatuwawa. Permission is required for accessing both labugama and kalatuwawa reserviors. Great views and lovely nature as well. Must feel the environment.

👍👍 Wonderful long and quiet beach. It is not too crowded and the sea color is amazing. Waves were very big when we were there, but local told us it was unusual. The wind was strong too, which was a good thing. There were no restaurants on the beach, only the one for the fancy 5-star hotel. So we had to...

🫤 They usually accomodate 250pax per day (according to them). They only have a single common washroom with only two commodes and zero urinals. So you need to stay in line to use the toilet. Pool is very small, and not very clean. There are so many groups playing there own music which makes the place t...

👍 We couldn't see anything as the fog was heavy and it was rainning. But the journey was so exciting. FYI there are leaches everywhere. So it is the best if you could walk without stopping anywhere. It was a 10-15 minutes walk from the pitawala pathana entrance. It's a shame that we couldn't get to se...

👍 As it is a very valuable plant in Sri Lanka, it should be taken care of and protected

The uniqueness of Anawilundawa is its immediate proximity to th...

👍 one beautiful place in thelgamu oya you can find while moving toward Atanwala village. visitors advise to not bath in the fall due to quickly rising water level. There is a bridge over the waterfall giving beautiful views of the surrounding.

👍👍 A great place for kids, adults and the whole family to come learn about sea turtles, and some of the challenges they are currently facing ranging from pollution to hunting and trafficking. This place is awesome and takes care of injured turtles, including those that will never be able to swim in th...
