Ella is a picturesque town surrounded by mountains and valleys. It’s a hub for a wide range of activities in Sri Lanka and because of it’s higher elevation it remains warm but comfortable year round and offers some respite from the rest of the country which can get stiflingly hot in season, or see a lot of rain out of season. Almost every person I met travelling in Sri Lanka remarked Ella was their favourite place they visited during their trip and I have to say it was also mine. The temperate weather makes Ella a great place to do lots of activities each day -you can go hiking, enjoy one of the most beautiful train journeys in the world, view Nine Arch Bridge, swim in waterfalls, go caving and swim in underground cave pools, take yoga classes, cooking classes, visit temples, and venture a little further for safaris. It’s an ideal spring board between Colombo and the South/East Coast and Yala National Park. The best way to arrive in Ella is by train from Kandy or Nuwara Eliya, but as one of the most beautiful train journey's in the world, you will need to book your train tickets in advance... my advice is to go for 2nd class- find out why, and how to book them in the "What To Do" section of this guide. Read on for all my recommendations on where to stay, what to do and where to eat for a FABULOUS time in Ella!

The Amalfi Coast isn't a coastline, it's a masterpiece sculpted by nature itself. Imagine a place where dramatic cliffs plunge into the sapphire waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Villages cling precariously to these cliffs, their colorful houses cascading down like vibrant jewels. The salty caress of the sea breeze mingles with the intoxicating aroma of lemon groves, creating a perfume that lingers in the air. Unlike the serene flatlands, the Amalfi Coast pulsates with an energy as vibrant as its colorful past. History whispers from every cobbled street and ancient monument. Yet, there's a sense of tranquility too, a chance to simply relax on pristine beaches or explore hidden coves by boat. The Amalfi Coast isn't just for the privileged few; it's a place where luxury meets authenticity, and every corner unveils a new adventure.
