Transfer to Colombo via Pinnawala.
The
Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage.
The
Pinnawela Elephant Orphanage, established in
1975, commenced with seven orphans. Today some
of these orphans enjoy the fortune of seeing
their grandchildren born in the same location.
The original objective of establishing the
orphanage inclined more towards tourism, but
is soon became a conservation and educational
centre. With the help of local and foreign
elephant experts, Pinnawela started a
scientific captive-breeding programme for
elephants. The free movement of the herd
enhanced the chances for respective
individuals of both sexes to get together and
mate. The nearby river played a dominant role
in this regard, and in 1984, the first baby of
Pinnawela was born.
The
success story of Pinnawela has drawn the
attention of scientists from all over the
world. A considerable number of books and
research articles on Pinnawela have been
published in several languages. The members of
the Pinnawela herd have been filmed, videoed
and photographed thousands of times by
professionals.
Afternoon city & shopping tour of Colombo .

several British built colonial buildings.
Other places of interest are a Hindu and a
Buddhist temple, residential areas where you
find the stately homes of the affluent, the
