Fool’s Bridge
About
Fool’s Bridge, on Sri Lanka, stands at 3HW5+7VJ in Ulapane, in the hill country of the island's centre. The venue is a viewpoint, with a 4.7 out of 5 average drawn from 81 reviews. Ulapane sits in the highlands, where the terrain rises sharply away from the coastal plains. Colombo, Galle, Kandy, Negombo, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay all sit within the island's main travel routes, though the hill country requires a longer inland journey.
The hill country in central Sri Lanka is cooler and wetter than the coastal plains, so a visit here calls for a layer that would be unnecessary on the coast. Sri Lanka is a major producer of tea and cinnamon, and Jaffna cooking uses its own blend of spices, both of which shape what visitors eat and drink in the highlands.
Blue whales and dolphins are seen off the south coast, and sea turtles nest on several beaches, though those sights belong to the coastline rather than the interior. First-time visitors should expect a hill-country setting reached by winding roads from Kandy or Colombo. Reviews place the viewpoint among the higher-scoring stops in the area.
Reaching Ulapane from the main resorts and towns means a climb into the interior, with Kandy the closest of the island's better-known stops. The 81 reviews and the 4.7 average reflect a viewpoint that draws a steady stream of visitors rather than a passing trickle. For anyone travelling between the coast and the hill country, the stop is a natural break in the journey.
