A land of paddy, cascading waterfalls and peacocks, Wellawaya sits in rural tranquillity at the foothills of the central massif – the Great Western Mountain range. Simple lifestyles still preside here, deeply embedded in traditional livelihoods that have survived unchanged for centuries. The town is literally at the crossroads and an important gateway to the East and the South. Serene and peaceful, the unspoilt landscape changes from lush fields to scrub jungle and rocky terrain of waterfalls.
The area is also culturally significant with sites of historical interest such as Buduruwagala Rock carvings nearby.
