What are some tips for visiting Ambuluwawa Tower in Sri Lanka?

Here are the most important tips for a comfortable and safe visit to Ambuluwawa Tower:

• Children under 7 years old are not allowed to climb the tower! – this rule is strictly enforced
• Arrive at opening time or in the evening – to avoid crowds of tourists
• Check the weather forecast – on cloudy days, the views are not as beautiful, and it can be dangerous at the top
• Bring extra cash – prices often increase, and the card terminal may not work
• Be careful at the top – there can be strong winds, and the railings are quite low
• Don't get carried away with selfies in dangerous spots – there have already been accidents
• Consider the narrow staircases – it may be physically impossible for larger people to reach the very top
• Be cautious with monkeys – hide food and valuables in backpacks
• Don't forget about the neighboring tower – it offers the best photos of the main tower against the landscape
• Bring a selfie stick and action camera – for impressive photos and videos

To use drones officially, you need to obtain approval from the Civil Aviation Authority of Sri Lanka (CAASL), although there is no direct ban on drone filming here.
