Hibiscus Garden is a welcoming guesthouse situated amidst extensive tropical gardens in Tissamaharama in the deep south. The hotel is located off the main Tissa – Kataragama road and is set away from the main tourist trail, yet close enough to experience Tissa’s ancient heritage, the jungle shrine of Kataragama which is about 30 minutes away, and Yala National Park, about 40 minutes.
Introduction
Hibiscus Garden is a homely guesthouse with 16 well appointed rooms housed in four separate chalets. The chalets are located surrounding the swimming pool. The main building houses the lounge area on the ground floor and an open sided restaurant on the upper floor overlooking lush green paddy fields. One third of the extensive gardens here is wilderness attracting numerous species of birds and dragon flies. Hibiscus Garden organizes bird watching trails accompanied by a local birding specialist.

Excursions
Tissamaharama was the capital of the ancient Ruhunu Kingdom in the 2nd century B.C. Tissa, named after King Kavantissa, is dominated by lakes and gigantic semi-circle shaped Buddhist Dagobas (temples). The sprawling Tissa Wewa was built by King Kavantissa 2,300 years ago. These reservoirs attract many species of water birds including cormorant, purple heron, Caspian tern and the painted stork. The sacred jungle shrine of Kataragama is located nearby, as are several ancient Buddhist temples and an archeological Museum that provides a glimpse into the ancient Ruhunu kingdom. Explore the jungle of Yala. A jeep safari into the Yala National Park is possible at dawn and again at about 3.30 pm. when the birds and animals are more visible. Red Dot can arrange a safari jeep to come directly to Hibiscus hotel and get you to the park entrance on time. The excursion can take up to three hours accompanied by a wildlife tracker. Yala National Park, with a total protected area of 126,768 hectares, is one of the best places to see a wide variety of Sri Lankan wildlife because of its scrub plains, lagoons and rocky sections. Boasting one of the world's densest leopard populations, Yala attracts many visitors. Yala is also home to herds of elephants, sloth bear, sambar, spotted deer, wild boar, crocodiles, monkeys and numerous species of birds.
