Kande-ela Reservoir

Reviewed By mailraashid - Mawanella, Sri Lanka

You meet the this lake on your way to Ambewala Livestock Farm and the Strawberry Farm. There are boats you Can take a Ride around they Charged us 2000Rs. We were lucky Enough to get onboard the oldes boat Rider on the location with over 28 years of experience, he told us the exciting experience he had in the lake. This lake was the Setting for the 2003 Critically and Commercially successful south Indian Film "Kakkha Kakkha" Directed by Gautham Mennon our boat guy was luckily the, Location coordinator. They had build a Treehouse in the middle of the lake (not available anymore) which has taken around 3months, shooting has lasted 14 Days. Subsequently they had done a Telungu language Remake as well. A boat ride is only worthwhile if you visit on a misty season, I visited Here on a november Day, witch was very much misty we could only see the water. If it's sunny it's like any other lake you see around srilanka nothing special, so this is not a Place to visit in april If you want to see the beauty of the lake I suggest You to watch the Movie. This the a highest freshwater Lake in srilanka, no Motorboats are alloved due to water pollution because this water is supplied to many parts oc the hill country.
