Nilgala Forest Reserve lies within Sri Lanka’s dry-zone savannah ecosystem. It is famed for its rare medicinal plants, crystal-clear water streams, and culturally significant Vedda settlements. The forest is a paradise for birdwatchers, home to species like the Blue-faced Malkoha and Sri Lanka Grey Hornbill. Its untouched landscapes offer photographers a refreshing contrast to thick jungle terrain found elsewhere.
