Nevertheless, it comes alive in the first three months of the year, especially in February, the driest month. The Academy Award-winning The Bridge on the River Kwai was filmed on the Kelani River near Kitulgala, although nothing remains now except the concrete foundations for the bridge (and, supposedly, the submerged train cars that plunged into the river in the climactic scene). Kitulgala is also a base for white-water rafting] which starts a few kilometers upstream leave from hotel Rafting at Kitulgala Lunch taken from Kitulgala (Food not including to Package) Return to hotel , sightseeing Rubber Plantations, Paddy fields and typical Sri Lankan village
