The joy of driving a manual transmission car from CMB, via Avissawella, Rathnapura, Balangoda, Boralanda, Haputhale, Ohiya & then Horton Plains, Ambewella, Nuwara Eliya, Thalawakeley, Avissawella and back to Colombo. On very narrow roads.
The Olympus Plaza hotel pastry shop in Haputhale was one of my favourite restaurants as their food was always very delicious. Sadly all the staff have changed and the quality of their cakes and chocolate brownies were very poor & not up to standard.
This is not the Nuwaraeliya or Ramboda area. Its one of the picturesque area in #Colombo- #Ingiriya Road.
Plenty of greenery views and Tea estates in both sides!
If you travel towards Ratnapura, or even Haputhale area from Colombo, you may use this road as it has lesser traffic!
