From what I know, UV rays stands for ultraviolet radiation. In nature UV lights can`t be seen, because they`re wave lengths are shorter than visible light. But special florescent light bulbs or black lights do give off long-wave UV radiation that is very close to the violet color of the visible spectrum. So it gives of a blackish/ very dark purplish color. You don`t really feel UV light unless you stay and the sun to long and get sun burnt. So all in all you can`t see UV lights or feel them, but you can see an stretched wavelengths of UV and the side effects of have to much UV light.

Can Ultra violet radiation can be felt as heat?

No, ultraviolet (UV) radiation cannot be felt as heat because it is not a form of thermal (heat) energy. UV radiation is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and interacts with the skin differently from thermal energy. While UV radiation can cause sunburn and damage to skin cells, it does not produce a sensation of heat like infrared radiation.
