Beautiful Viewing Points in Ella Town (Ella Gap)

Ella Gap

Ella gap can be seen by proceeding little distance on Ella Wellawaya road. The southern and down Uva plains and the lakes, reservoirs and forests are clearly visible in the far distance on a clear day. This is really popular among the local and foreign tourists and most of the them are used to observe it from the tourist hotel “Grand Ella Motel”. 

(Welcome to everyone’s favorite hill-country village, and the place to ease off the travel accelerator with a few leisurely days resting in your choice of some of the country’s best guesthouses. The views through Ella Gap are stunning, and on a clear night you can even spy the subtle glow of the Great Basses lighthouse on Sri Lanka’s south coast. Don’t be too laid-back though; definitely make time for easygoing walks through tea plantations to temples, waterfalls and viewpoints. After building up a hiking-inspired appetite, look forward to Sri Lanka’s best home-cooked food and a reviving cuppa.
In recent years, Ella's popularity has soared and the town's attractiveness has been somewhat compromised by some multi story concrete eyesores.) Source : http://www.lonelyplanet.com/sri-lanka/the-hill-country/ella/introduction
