Being in an unsurpassingly beautiful and peaceful setting, Ulpotha is the ideal venue for practicing Yoga in the relaxed manner unique to this wonderful spot. Here Yoga can be appreciated for what it is meant to be, a means to seemingly effortlessly find peace and a meditative inner calm without any of the dogma that can so often get in the way of the best of intentions.
The property is a beautiful private hideaway open to guests for part of the year; a place of total peace, where you can experience the warm, generous and gentle hospitality Sri Lankans love to offer. This oasis of tranquility is a traditional working village cradled on one side by low mountains and a lotus ringed lake, and on the other by emerald green paddy fields. The bio-diversity of Ulpotha is extraordinary, with flora, fauna and bird life of dazzling variety. Animal life is equally varied, with even wild (but gentle) elephants visiting from time to time. Guests who come to Ulpotha will find a natural sanctuary of exceptional beauty, where the main activity is simply relaxing in its remarkable atmosphere of peace and calm while indulging in feasts of exquisite organic cuisine. Alternatively, Yoga is offered twice daily, and there are many intriguing sites of cultural interest to visit in the immediate vicinity, many of which are completely off the usual tourist-beaten path. For those who wish to couple their Yoga with something other than the above, there are a number of Ayurveda therapies available. For bookings and more information, Visit www.Ulpotha.com
