Join me on a scenic road trip from Hakgala to Bomburu Ella, one of the most breathtaking drives in Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka. 🌿🚘
Bomburu Ella (also known as Perawella Falls) is the widest waterfall in Sri Lanka, located about 15 km from Nuwara Eliya, near Udupussellawa in the Sita Eliya Kandapola Forest Reserve.
