A WINDOW INTO THE LOCATION
Located in central Sri Lanka, just southwest of the island’s cultural capital Kandy, Hanthana is popular among those who enjoy hiking, camping, bird watching and those with an affinity for nature.
Hanthana’s proximity to Kandy makes it a convenient location from which to tour the signs and sounds of this as well as nearby attractions. Although, once you immerse yourself in what AYU has to offer, it’s unlikely you’ll want to step out of the its tranquility.
