අම්මෝ මල් වල ලස්සන Hakgala Botanical Garden Amazing bloomed flowers my beautiful Sri Lanka
Botanic Gardens at Hakgala were established in 1861 for the purpose of experimentation and promotion of Cinchona cultivation in Sri Lanka. The gardens lying in the hill country among Sri Lanka's tea plantations in the Nuwara Eliya district are located along the Badulla Road, 9.5 km South-east of Nuwara Eliya, the popular holiday resort.
Situated at an elevation of about 1745 m above mean sea level, Hakgala Botanic Gardens, about 28 hectares in extent, lie under the shadow of the Hakgala Rock (meaning “Elephant's jaw rock”). This massive rock towers to a height of about 2,200m behind the gardens and the surrounding forest reserve like a solitary giant.
The gardens take the shape of several terraces upon the lower slopes of the rock and face the Uva Valley, across which some magnificent views of the Madulsima and the Namunukula range of mountains are seen in the distant landscape. The climate of the Gardens is subtropical, cool, fresh and some what similar to an alpine atmosphere.

Hakgala Botanical Garden, A trip to Nuwara Eliya in April
Hakgala Botanical Garden is one of the five botanical gardens in Sri Lanka. The other four are Peradeniya Botanical Garden, Henarathgoda Botanical Garden, Mirijjawila Botanical Garden and Seetawaka Botanical Garden. It is the second largest garden in Sri Lanka.
We visited this amazing garden in the April. It is the flower bloom season to Nuwara Eliya and therefore it was so crowded in the Garden and Nuwara Eliya town. But we enjoyed a lot. Here are some special moments that I captured in our wonderful trip. I used my osmo mobile pocket gimbal to capture 4k videos for you. Hope you will like my video.
