This water fall is also identified as one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Sri Lanka. Since the shape of the cascade is similar to a 'Bo' leave (Ficus Religiosa), the fall has given its name. It is formed with Kuruganga River originated from Samanala Kanda (Adam's peak) range of mountains. Since the annual rain fall received by the catchments area of the fall is more than 5000mm, the average flow of the fall is not less than 6 cubic meters per second.

This is a very nice and very famous waterfall & 30m tall. This is in Kuruwita, 2.5hrs (around 75km) away from Colombo, from Kuruwita turn to Higgashena - Devipahala rd. Location is there in the google map and can easily follow that. Vehicles have to park at the car park and walk up to the waterfall view point. If someone wants to go to the bottom of the waterfall have to cross the water stream and find your way through the rocks. Not hard but get the advice from the ticketing counter before you cross the do that. During the rainy season water levels can go up and rocks can be slippery. Time you spend here is subjected to what you want do here, just seeing the fall from the view point, want to go closer to the fall, taking professional pics, having a bath or having a picnic....... There are so many food stalls and hotels nearby ... But due to corvid, now many have closed down.

Public place. This is situate about 16Km away from Yatiyanthota town. Rode condition is not much good, but still ok. Can reach easily as this beside the road. Water fall consist in few segments. No proper way to reach upper segments. If you need to go up think about your safety. It slippery and leaches also there. Grate please to taste the nature. Please don't pollute the place. Entrance free. 4 hours stay in the place and enjoyed.
