Devon Falls
Devon water fall is one of the most beautiful cascades of Sri Lanka, located at close to Talawakele town. Further, it is one of the six falls impacted with upper Kotmale hydro power project. But it has been unable to reduce the water capacity of the fall.

The mountain slopes and valleys area carpet of velvety green tea plantations, interspersed with gushing streams and tumbling water falls. Red or green roofed plantation bungalows, English country style homes and hotels with lovely flower gardens, Lake Gregory, a fine 18 hole golf course and a race course gives Nuwara Eliya a decidedly British character.
