Day
05 - After breakfast proceed to the Kandy
railway station and travel by train to Rabukkana. The journey
by train takes you to some of the most picturesque mountain
terrain passing lush green valleys with spectacular views
of paddy plantations. The clients will be picked-up from the
Rabukkana railway station and will continue to the Pinnawela
Elephant orphanage to see abandoned baby elephants being fed,
bathed and trained. Visit the orphanage in time to witness
the baby elephants being bottle fed with milk. After spending
some time with baby elephants return back to Kandy
enroute visiting the Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya
which was originally the pleasure gardens of the royalty.
Today nearly 4000 species of local and foreign plants are
found and the garden covers about 150 acres. Return to the
Hill Top Hotel for an overnight stay, where you will enjoy
the spirit of the central hills and will be treated to something
truly Sri Lankan. |
