Avissawella, Colombo
Avissawella, nestled in the Western Province of Sri Lanka, is a town steeped in history and surrounded by natural beauty. Positioned approximately 48.1 km away from Colombo, this town acts as a crucial junction, connecting the capital to various parts of the island, including the scenic hill country via Ratnapura and Hatton. Avissawella, also historically known as Seethawakapura, served as the capital of the Sitawaka Kingdom, marking it with a rich heritage that predates the colonial era.
Its strategic location made it a focal point for military and trade activities, especially during the reign of King Mayadunne and his son, Rajasinghe I. Today, Avissawella is transforming into an industrial hub, courtesy of the Seethawaka Industrial Zone, while retaining its charm with attractions like the Kumari Waterfall and the lush Seethawaka River flowing by its side.
