how To reach Adisham
This is what i got from the search;

On my way to Bandarawela, When i come across Haputale Junction i Turn to the Boralanda Road, about 1km through the road i'll meet the Adisham Junction and Take 500m to the Monetery

is this route correct?.. any special land mark in the hauptale town, ( eg Police Station road ... )

Thx

Hello Rehans,

The turn-off to the Boralanda road is about 100m before you come to the Haputale (junction). The Police Station is also on this road. It's very easy to locate. Please ask someone on the road if you are not too sure.

Hope you have a good holiday.

Best Regards,

Priyanjan.

You have the answer in this thread - Ravana Ella or Bambaraga Ella?

Hello Rehans,

This is part of what I wrote to you in my reply to your PM. I am posting it here so that it will benefit others too.

The waterfall that most people refer to as 'Rawana Ella' is a few kms along the Ella - Wellawaya Rd. Just by the road. From B'wela first take the Badulla Rd. (A-16) and drive down until you come to the 'Kumbalwela' junction. From there take a right turn. That's the road that goes to Wellawaya through Ella (A-23). I do not have the distances with me but, it would take about 30 minutes (or less) to get to the waterfall from Bandarawela.

Have a good holiday.

Best Regards,

Priyanjan.
