On the second day of the Haldummulla trip, the Medicinal Plants Garden at Pattipola was visited. The route from Haldummulla to Pattipola was via Beragala, Haputale, Bora-landa, Keppetipola, Rendapola and Ambewela. The returning back to Haldummulla was through Welimada & Bandarawela. A bird-watching session took place at the Haldummulla Garden in the after-noon. Prof. Piyal Marasinghe delivered one of his lecture that evening too.
