Urawala Ground

4.4(127 reviews)

About

On Sri Lanka, Urawala Ground stands in Nuwara Eliya, a hill-country town in the central highlands where Ceylon tea is grown. The ground is a sports pitch, and matches and practice sessions take place against that tea-country backdrop. Nuwara Eliya sits within reach of Kandy, and Colombo, Galle, Negombo, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay all lie further afield.\n\nA 4.4 out of 5 average from 127 reviews places Urawala Ground among the more consistently reviewed sports pitches on the island. First-time visitors can expect a working pitch rather than a spectator stadium, with the town's cool highland air shaping how the ground plays. The surrounding hills make the trip part of the visit, and the ground's position in Nuwara Eliya keeps it within a day's travel of Kandy.\n\nCoconut, sambol and curry leaves flavour Sri Lankan cooking, and Ceylon tea comes from the central highlands, so a stop in Nuwara Eliya pairs naturally with the ground. Blue whales and dolphins are seen off the south coast, and sea turtles nest on several beaches, giving a coastal counterpoint to the highlands.\n\nThe southwest monsoon brings rain from about May to September, and the northeast monsoon from October to January, so conditions on the pitch shift with the season. Urawala Ground's 4.4 out of 5 average from 127 reviews reflects steady approval from those who have played or watched there.
