Central Highlands of Sri Lanka

Need a clear view to see the plunge and the villages and lakes below. We were lucky that it turned sunny as we walked from carpark to the viewpoint

Sri Padaya is where the buddhists believe that the footprint of lord Buddha is situated as well as this sacred place is called Adam’s peak.
Though it is significant for a religious reason and many Sri Lankans pilgrim every year it has a rich bio diversity and a world heritage sight!
Now one of the main concerns is the polytene circulation in this diversified hot spot.As travelers we should be mindful of being eco friendly and sustainable!
After thousands of steps into the peak you can witness amazeball views like this and you’ll regret of a single drop of sweat you spilled 🙌🏾

Baker's Falls in Horton Plains NP. Entrance fee to the NP is a bit pricey though.

This view was definitely worth the 5am wake up and 10km hike.
