Ella, which means "water fall" in both Sinhala and Tamil, is a tiny town in Sri Lanka's Badulla District that is overseen by an Urban Council. It is located 1,041 meters (3,415 feet) above sea level and about 200 kilometers (120 miles) east of Colombo. Rich in biological richness, the region is home to a wide range of vegetation and fauna. Hills covered in cloud forests and tea plantations encircle Ella. Due to its elevation, the town experiences a colder climate than the lowlands around. Views across Sri Lanka's southern plains are possible from the Ella Gap.
The Nine Arches Bridge also called the Bridge in the Sky, is a viaduct bridge in Sri Lanka. It is one of the best examples of colonial-era railway construction in the country. It is located in Demodara, between Ella and Demodara railway stations.
