Suspension bridge connecting Gannoruwa to the Peradeniya Gardens.


This is a beautiful landmark at Peradeniya, connecting the Peradeniya Gardens with Gannoruwa on the opposite bank of the Mahaweli Ganga. It is now closed for use.

Old suspension bridge across the Mahaweli Ganga at Levalle, Kandy, Sri Lanka.

The Mahaweli Ganga at Lewalle, Kandy, had a suspension bridge for bicycles and pedestrians, till 2000. The suspension bridge was built in 1936. Now it has been replaced by a concrete bridge to carry heavy traffic. The old bridge is left to die a gradual death. I took this picture on 7/6/2009.
