Udawalawe is a wildlife sanctuary located on the border of Sri Lanka’s Sabaragamuwa and Uva provinces, famous for its large population of wild elephants. The Udawalawe National Park is one of the best places in Asia to see elephants in their natural habitat, especially during jeep safaris that cut through open grasslands, woodlands, and reservoirs. It’s a must-visit for wildlife photographers, nature lovers, and families looking for a thrilling but accessible safari experience.
