Kitulgala is a small town in the west of Sri Lanka.[1] The Academy Award-winning The Bridge on the River Kwai was filmed on the Kelani River near Kitulgala,[2][3] although nothing remains now except the concrete foundations for the bridge. Kitulgala is also a base for white-water rafting,[4] which starts a few kilometres upstream and also popular as a location for adventure based training programs.
