| Video Discription | Nine Arches Bridge Ella Sri Lanka drone view About Nine Arches Bridge ------------------------------------------------ he Nine Arch Bridge also called the Bridge in the Sky, is a viaduct bridge in Sri Lanka. It is one of the best examples of colonial-era railway construction in the country. The construction of the bridge is generally attributed to a local Ceylonese builder, P. K. Appuhami, in consultation with British engineers. The chief designer and project manager of the 'upcountry railway line of Ceylon' project were D. J. Wimalasurendra, a distinguished Ceylonese engineer and inventor. The designer of the viaduct was Harold Cuthbert Marwood of Railway Construction Department of Ceylon Government Railway. The 1923 report titled "Construction of a Concrete Railway Viaduct in Ceylon" published by the Engineering Association of Ceylon has details of all the records including the plans and drawings. It is located in Demodara, between Ella and Demodara railway stations. The surrounding area has seen a steady increase in tourism due to the bridge's architectural ingenuity and the profuse greenery in the nearby hillsides. Popular rumors suggest that when construction work commenced on the bridge, the Great War began between the empires of Europe, and the steel assigned for this site was reallocated to Britain's War-related projects at the battlefront. As a result, the work came to a standstill, leading the locals to build the bridge with stone bricks and cement, but without steel. =================================================== Nine Arches Bridge Ella Sri Lanka nine arch bridge sri lanka travel sri lanka kandy to ella train ride sri lanka ella train ride ella train ride sri lanka ella sri lanka tourism ella sri lanka places to visit ella train sri lanka ella sri lanka hotels nine arches bridge demodara nine arches bridge harry potter nine arches bridge sri lanka nine arches nine arch bridge ella nine arch bridge history |
