Water falls in Sri Lanka

Waterfalls are another important natural object you can see in Sri Lanka. If you come to Central Mountain Group, Sri Lanka you can see waterfalls almost everywhere. There are more than 300 waterfalls in Sri Lanka.


Dunhinda Falls


 
The Dunhinda Falls is one of Sri Lanka's most beautiful waterfalls located about 5 km off Badulla town. The waterfall, which is 210 feet (64 m) high gets its name from the smoky dew drops spray, (Dun in sinhala means mist or smoke) which surrounds the area at the foot of the waterfall. The water fall is created by the river called Badulu Oya which goes through the Badulla town.

Trincomalee – Nilaveli and Uppaveli

Trincomalee, with its magnificent deep harbour, has for centuries been a magnet for merchants, adventurers and colonists. Although the town offers a number of interesting attractions, including a fort and the famous Hindu temple on a rock promontory above the sea, most visitors head for the legendary Nilaveli Beach, or the far less developed, though equally lovely, beach of Uppaveli.
