Why You'll Love Wellawaya Wellawaya sits at a key road junction linking the hill country to the southern coast, most visited for its proximity to the towering Buduruwagala rock-cut Buddha statues and the dramatic Diyaluma Falls just outside town.
A cluster of ancient rock-cut Buddha and Bodhisattva figures a short drive from town — full details in the Buduruwagala guide.
Sri Lanka's second-highest waterfall lies just outside Wellawaya toward Koslanda.
See the ancient rock-cut figures in the Buduruwagala guide, and continue to Diyaluma Falls or on to Ella.
