Miiyan Elle , Ihala Kotte

what a memorable tour . what a beautiful railway station. How amazing the nature is ?

There were no lectures for us at that day. Me and my Girl friend @ayodyani123 did not know where Ihala kotte is. We asked from our friends . they told us the place . we went to the Sarasavi Uyana railway station to know about the train . there was a train at 10.55 A.M. Webought two tickets to Ihala kotte.

we wait untill the train comes. About 11.05 A.M. train arrived the station. We got in to the train and started interesting tour. We have visited so many places. But this is our first travel by a train. We looked for a door to sit there and look out. But there was someone at every door . We stayed near a door and looked out as we can. We passed beautiful villages, dark tunnels etc. Finaly we came to the destination.

It was one of the most of beautiful railway stations which I have seen. We couldn't find where the Miiyan Elle Waterfall is. All the people who came to the station went through the railway. We went behind them . hee hee. Then we found a tunnel.

Most of the people went through the tunnel. So we two also went through the tunnel. there was another small tunnel to the left except the main tunnel which the rail way goes . the small tunnel was three, four feet above the main tunnel. It was difficult to climb through the small tunnel . I like those things. Some boys near the tunnel helped us to climb up. It was difficult to take photos. so I took a photo from google. I'll place the link below

we had to move through the tunnel with a slight bend. Then we found the most beautiful place. It was a hole through a rock.

You can see a bridge like thing out the hole. we wanted to go to that bridge too .. hee hee.. .
we went back again. just see my fourth photo .we had to go to the left side of the tunnel. just see carefully the upperpart of the tunnel one person who is wearing a red T shirt is sitting there. I also wanted to sit there and take a photograph. hee.hee. I like those adventures things. I said my gf to stay and I started to climb. Some people also went in front of me. I think they was very afraid of climbing. when I go to that place to the corner those people were very afraid.

If you can look at the above photo carefully , you can see me standing at the upper part of the tunnel. hee. (Like an ant) after taking the photograph I told my girl friend to come to the top. there is another path to go to the top of the rock.it was amazing and very adventurous path. Birth the view was very beautiful at the top.

After climbing to the top. we went down the rock. but we couldn't find that bridge. There was another path next to the path which we climbed to the top. We went through that path about 500 meters. Then we found that bridge like thing.
we saw the tunnel of the rock clearly like a hole. we wanted to look each other and take photographs staying we two at two sides. quickly to other side through the tunnel and took the picture shown below

then we met each other at the railway. we were so hungry. we had rice and curry with us. but there was no place to have the lunch. we went back through the railway. we saw a small tea shop near the railway station. we took our lunch there.
Then we came to the railway station again. we took our tickets to the Sarasavi Uyana railway station. We stayed for the train.About 3.00 PM. The train arrived station. we got in to the train and again tried to find a door to out. but there was at least one person at each door. after going some distance through the train we stopped at a door. There was a boy sitting at the door. after some timed he looked at us give us a head signal to come and sit there. then he went away. He is a good person. we sat at the door . we kept our legs out. It was an amazing feeling. when going through tunnels every where looked dark. we held our hands tightly. Our first train journey isa non forgettable journey. Finally we came to the Sarasavi Uyana station.
final thing that I have to say is, visit Ihalakotte/Meeyan elle , don't pollute the nature
