Bandarawela
057 / Population 7880 / Elevation 1230m
Bandarawela, 10km north of Haputale but noticeably warmer, is a busy market town that
makes a good base for exploring the surrounding area. Due to its agreeable climate, it's a
popular area to retire to. Each Sunday morning the town has a lively market. Otherwise
Bandarawela has little to attract tourists. It's a good transport hub if you're heading east or
further into the Hill Country.
