අලිමංකඩ Paradise of food

👍 Nice little restaurant located close to Elephants’ action in Pinnawela. The service was quick and courteous. The food was quite nice for that area. The seating is available for approximately 20-40 people, with an outdoor balcony seating area for extra spice.

Elephant Bathing Site
Tourist attraction
👍👍 This is the best place to view elephants up close
They walk the elephants down to the river so they can roam around and play in the water
It is fantastic just to watch them play and you are very close to them
I could watch them for hours this way just doing what they love to do

Elephants Bathing Place
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Elephants in the orphanage are brought here to shower. All the elephants are given a bath once a day, so make sure to check the time with the ticket counter. You also can enjoy the scene while eating something as there are places you can grab a snack in the area.
