Lion’s Mouth & Elephant Back

Description

Lion’s  Mouth is an overhanging rock that is  found  along a bend  in  the  railway  between  Balana  and  Kadugannawa, that earned  its  unique  name  due  to its  resemblance  to the face of lion. As the train takes the bend under the Lion’s Mouth, a steep drop into the valley below is visible – viewing through the window of a compartment at this point offers a breathtaking view.
