The most recently known UNESCO World Heritage Site in Sri Lanka is the central hill country. This site, declared as a World Heritage Site in 2010, is a collection of Horton Plains, Knuckles Forest Reserves and mountain forest reserves. This area has been named as Australia’s Big Barrier Reef as an important living area.
If you too have been wandering through the valleys of the Horton Plateau, and if you have gone to the mysterious fallen paths of the Knuckles Mountain Range, why not ask why UNESCO has declared it a World Heritage City? The Central Hills of Sri Lanka is a blend of natural treasures, no fault. The valleys and valleys, which are beyond the reach of their eyes, are an area of high biodiversity in the region, where the fields and animals live.
In Sri Lanka, the Sri Lanka leopard, the endemic endemic species of the Horton Plain, the endemic endemic species, the Dhammapan Lingur Monkeys, and many more endemic species, have been identified as endangered species. Also, here we see our country and perhaps only endemic animal species.
