This story is relating with my day 01 article about the night at Telgamu oya. On the second day we left from telgamu oya to Mahiyanganaya via the huge forest. Once we came to the Mahiyanganaya we went to the Sorabora wewa which was very famous in Sri Lanka as it made by a giant called Bulatha.

After that we continued our tour to Badulla by seeing the roadside beauty of the nature,rivers and waterfalls. We came to Badulla around 12pm and had a lunch at nearby restaurant. After that we found a good and safety place for a bath. Then we spent some time over there and left to the destination at Bandarawela called “Sidupiyanila” catholic seminary.

This is the place where we spent some of our nights and the priests are very kind and helpful for all. In the evening we went to see the small waterfall at the behind of the seminary’s land area. But unfortunately the fall was dried at that time. Then we thought to climb this as this was seems like not difficult. There is the Badulla railway line at the top of the waterfall and we were easily climbed the fall without any single damage to anyone.

After that we came back to the seminary and spend our misty night at the misty city called Bandarawela where the place like my second home..
