It was constructed in 1807 by King Sri Wickrama Rajasinghe next to the Temple of the Tooth. Over time, its size has been reduced. It is a protected lake where fishing is prohibited. Many legends and folklore surround the lake, including one that suggests the small island at its center was used by the king’s harem for bathing and was connected to the palace by a secret tunnel.
Kandy - Dambulla
Sigiriya The Ancient Rock Fortress - Sigiriya, also known as Sinhagiri, is an ancient rock fortress located in the northern Matale District near Dambulla in the Central Province of Sri Lanka. The site is of historical and archaeological significance, dominated by a massive column of rock nearly 200 meters high.
Dambulla - Dambulla is steeped in history. For centuries, the area surrounding Dambulla, spanning over fifty acres, was inhabited by forest-dwelling monks. These monks had minimal contact with the public, focusing mainly on meditation. Archaeological data confirms the existence of cave shrines in Dambulla. According to inscriptions, the shrines and surrounding areas were donated to the monks by royalty, nobility, monks, and nuns. Recently, the climb to the cave shrine, which is 600 feet above the plains and 100 feet above sea level, has been made easier.
Dambulla Cave Temple - The Dambulla cave temple is mentioned in numerous religious and historical texts. The temple consists of five caves. The first cave contains seven images, including the Buddha passing away, his disciple Ananda, Vishnu, and four other Buddhas. The second cave houses sixty images of the Buddha. The third cave, built by a Kandyan king on the advice of a monk, features a 30-foot reclining Buddha image. The fourth cave, though small, contains several Buddha images and a miniature stupa. The fifth cave is the most recent addition and includes a reclining Buddha surrounded by numerous Buddha images.
Dambulla - Polonnaruwa
Gal Vihara - The Gal Vihara, also known as Gal Viharaya and originally as Uttararama, is a rock temple of the Buddha located in the ancient city of Polonnaruwa in North Central Province, Sri Lanka. It was created in the 12th century by Parakramabahu.
The Palace of King Parakramabahu - Built by King Parakramabahu, this ancient man-made reservoir is Sri Lanka’s largest rainwater tank. Covering an area of 2,500 hectares and containing 134 million cubic meters of water, this reservoir is the source of irrigation for the agricultural area of Polonnaruwa and its surroundings.
Lotus Pond - This site features a large pond or bathing pool designed in the shape of a blossoming lotus, with five conical rings of eight petals descending in steps from top to bottom. Two cutaways in the upper sections provide easy access to the higher levels. This intricate stone bath, made of solid-cut granite, is visually striking. It could be the work of Nissanka Malla or Parakramabahu.
Polonnaruwa - Anuradhapura
Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi - Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi is a sacred fig tree located in the Mahamewna Gardens in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka. It is believed to be a southern branch from the historical Sri Maha Bodhi at Buddha Gaya in India, under which Lord Buddha attained Enlightenment.
Mihintale - Buddhism was introduced to Sri Lanka at Mihintale in 247 B.C., making it a place of historical and religious significance. Mihintale features sixty-eight cave dwellings that provided monks with shade and shelter. Lay assistants were required to submit a list of expenditures weekly, a summary of accounts at the end of each lunar month, and a balance sheet at the end of each year.
Ruwanwelisaya - Standing at 300 feet, Ruwanwelisaya is the oldest stupa in Sri Lanka and the smallest of the three giant brick edifices in the world. The stupa is one of the eight places of veneration in Anuradhapura, believed to have been visited by Buddha during his three visits to Sri Lanka.
Moonstone or Sandakada pahana - The moonstone is a prevalent architectural feature in Sri Lanka. Shaped like a half-moon, it is found at the base of a short staircase, with steps flanked by two balustrades that terminate below with two large vertical stones.

Nuwara Eliya - Nuwara Eliya, also known as the Garden City of Asia due to its hills, valleys, and waterfalls, is located 6,182 feet above sea level at the foot of Mount Pidurangala, Sri Lanka’s highest peak. Discovered by Sir Samuel Baker, the legendary explorer who found the source of the Nile, in 1819, Nuwara Eliya served as a retreat for the colonial government during the hot and humid months of March, April, and May. Both domestic and international tourists visit Nuwara Eliya to enjoy the pleasant climate, play golf, stroll through the park, admire the lush plantations, visit the Hakgala gardens, and explore the area, ending at Horton Plains, which features a dramatic drop in elevation of several thousand feet.

Galle Fort - There are various interpretations of the word ‘Galle’ associated with the fort.

Built seven meters above the road on the ramparts, it is Sri Lanka’s oldest light station, dating back to 1848.
