History
The Knuckles massif — Dumbara Kanduvetiya, the 'mist-laden mountains' — shelters cloud forests so distinct they form part of the Central Highlands UNESCO World Heritage Site. Meemure, a village of a few hundred people reachable by one jungle road, preserves a way of life little changed for centuries under the Lakegala rock.
