Questions about this page
How many waterfalls are there in Sri Lanka?
20 on this map, out of 46 nature & landscapes in Sri Lanka. That is what Wikidata records with coordinates, a photograph and a Wikipedia article, so it is a floor rather than a census.

Bambarakanda Falls. Tallest waterfall in Sri Lanka.
Which waterfalls in Sri Lanka are the least visited?
11 of the 20 rank as little known — a Wikipedia article in only a handful of languages. They sit at the bottom of the ranked list below.
Where does this information come from?
Every place is drawn from Wikidata (CC0), with photographs from Wikimedia Commons and a link to its English Wikipedia article. Selection is deterministic: a place is here because Wikidata files it under one of the classes this atlas carries and it has coordinates, a photo and an article. Nothing is written or chosen by an AI, and the ranking is simply how many Wikipedia language editions cover a place.
