Mandaramnuwara tour

-

 


Our friends planned to go on a trip. We decided to go to Mandaramnuwara. After leaving, I realizeed we had come to the best place. We went in a small van. We left Kurunegala at around six in the morning. It was around nine in the morning when we arrived in Mandaramnuwara. When we left, it was so foggy that we couldn't see anyone nearby.

We walked up the mountain to see the Kolapathala Falls. we washed our feet in the streams and picked fruits from the trees. It took us about an hour to get there. I was surprised, the waterfall is very high and the area below is very beautiful. The water in the waterfall was very cold. we went into the water and took pictures. It suddenly  started raining, so we quickly came down the mountain.

😃😃

There was a mountain of avocados in a house at the foot of the mountain. we all bought a lot of avocados from there to take home. We didn't forget to by Leeks, Carrot and Beans that were available for sale. We had lunch and spent a lot of time freely enjoying the beauty of the environment. Then we left to go home.
