Stilt Fishing

Stilt fishing is an old and well-established method of fishing that is still actively practiced throughout Sri Lanka`s southern coast, particularly in the towns of Koggala, Weligama, Dikwella, Galle, and Tangalle, to mention a few. The term `Ritipanna` refers to stilt fishing in the indigenous Sinhala language. Stilt fishing has no known ancestors, although many people think that traders who saw them returning from the sea with mesh bags packed with fish promoted it to merchants. As a result, this inherited practice was passed down from father to son.

The trail to Little Adam`s Peak is also extremely easy to find because it is plainly marked.

The trip begins on reasonably flat ground and is rather scenic because you`re surrounded by teaplants; however, the higher you go, the steeper the trail becomes, so it`s better to wear walking shoes.

Ella nine arch bridge

The Nine Arches Bridge is an ancient bridge located in the hill town of Ella in Sri Lanka, 3 kilometers from Ella Railway Station. It is one of Ella`s most well-known landmarks, also known as Ahas Namaye Palama, or the Bridge in the Sky.

This lovely lake is surrounded by amazing views of distant mountains.

Tea Factory and Plantation

Sri Lanka has a long history of tea tourism, and practically all tea factories provide some kind of tour. The tours can be completed while traveling through the tea country and don`t take very long. Normally, when visiting a tea factory, one would first visit the plantation to learn about the cultivation of tea before going to the factory to see the old equipment that was used to wither, roll, and dry the tea before the industrial revolution. After the tour, there is typically some time for a tea tasting, sometimes of just one kind of tea but more often of the numerous specialties of that particular factory.

Ramboda waterfall

There are two stairs and more than one waterfall at Ramboda. There is another waterfall on the opposite side of Ramboda Place`s main road. The majority of tourists ignore the waterfall, visit the upside-down waterfall, and then go. Rivers frequently generate tributaries or waterfalls when they travel over rocky terrain or down mountains. When water pours down cliffs and rocks, it can occasionally split into two branches of the same river, creating twin waterfalls that are quite close to one another. It is unusual for the tributaries to come together after the waterfalls have formed a Y shape.

08 Day

Proceed to Kandy after breakfast. You can get the opportunity to explore a royal botanical garden. Visit the Temple of the Tooth Relic (Dalada Malaigawa), a World Heritage Site, after that.

Tooth of temple Kandy

The Sri Dalada Maligawa (or Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic) is a Buddhist temple that houses Lord Buddha`s tooth relic. It is located within the royal palace complex of the ancient Kingdom of Kandy. Kandy was the last great capital of Sri Lanka`s ancient monarchs, and the presence of the temple is one of the main reasons why the city was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The relic housed within the temple has played an important part in Sri Lanka`s political history, as it was believed that the keeper of the relic had the authority to rule the country. The protection of the tooth relic became one of the monarch`s duties, and it became a symbol of the right to reign over time. This is why the temples built to protect the relic were so close to the monarch`s royal home.

09 Day

We leave the hotel after breakfast and transport you to Negombo. Then visit the Spice and Herbal Garden. Then go on a Pinnawala elephant orphanage tour to see more lovely scenery.

Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage

The word `elephant orphanage` may be unfamiliar, yet it is entirely factual and real. The quiet grounds are committed to providing a natural habitat for captive elephant babies ranging in age from weeks to fifty years. The herd can be housed at the only orphanage of its sort on the planet to date.

The Pinnawela elephant orphanage in Sri Lanka was founded in 1975 on a nine-hectare plot of ideal coconut plantation land. There were only seven orphans at the start. Some of this generation`s members have now given birth to the second and third generations, and the story continues.
