From October to January, a weaker monsoon (the Maha Monsoons) hits the country, affecting its central Hill Country, like Nuwara Eliya and the central Cultural Triangle, which includes Dambulla, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa. January to March is a fantastic time to visit the place followed by April, which is usually the hottest month.
