About Abarana Ella
According to folklore, the 2m high Abarana Ella (Abharana Ella) waterfall derives its name from the fascinating but sad story of King Vijayabahu. The king was married to beautiful twin sisters, both seven months� pregnant. Before leaving for a sea battle, he announced to his queens that should he be successful, white flags would be hoisted from his ship�s mast upon his return, but should he be defeated, black flags would be flown instead. He also warned them that he would not live to see defeat.
