WATERFALLS

By dileeka

                water in all its forms, icebergs, snowflakes, oceans, lakes
 and rivers has a fascination of its own. But none can surpass the awesome
 beauty of a water fall. there are about sixteen principal water falls in
Sri Lanka of these Bambarakanda water fall is the highest, with a height
of about 240 meters’. Dunhinda which is perhaps the best known of all
 the water falls gets its name from the smoke like spray it creates as its
 water falls in to the rock pool below hence the name ‘Dunhinda’.
                 Bopath Ella is another water falls known for its beauty of formation.
 In this the water falls gracefully in the shape of a ‘Bo’ leaf.
                 Water falls are not just pretty things. They have a majesty
of their own. They are delights of nature to be experienced and felt, not
 just seen only.
