Balangoda to Belihuloya, Sri Lanka.

A hut by the river, Belihuloya, Sri Lanka.

This beautiful setting is on the opposite bank of the Belihuloya Rest House. The place is popular with bathers doing the long trip to Katharagama from Rathnapura. Now there is a shorter but less scenic route through Embilipitiya and Udawalawe. The stream looks placid but is dangerous. A companion of mine got nearly drowned bathing here. He lost his sarong in the struggle and had to be given a towel to cover his nakedness before emerging from the water.

'Surathali' (Female Beloved-S) waterfalls, on the BelihulOya - Beragala road, Sri Lanka.

This waterfall is visible from the main road but you have to walk a few yards on a well constructed pathway to see its real beauty.
