🇱🇰 🌴🌳☘️ Rumassala Sri Lanka ☘️🌳🌴 🇱🇰
Rumassala Kanda is a rocky forest area located near the Galle city and about two kilometers from the base of the Galle-Matara highway. Some people say that it is an unbelievable fact that such a mountain range is located near the city of Galle in the Galle district, which is related to a vast plain. In short, Rumassala mountain is a foreign mountain to that place.

🏄 🏊Most Beautiful Beaches in Sri Lanka 🏊 🏄

Sri Lanka is very famous for its beaches. The entire island is surrounded by blue crystal clear ocean. As a matter of fact, a lot of hotels are based near the beaches. Some beaches even have a historical significance. The beautiful, breath-taking and panoramic views of the western, southern, eastern and northern coastlines are yet another proof of choosing this island as your ultimate holiday destination. Sun-bathing and sea-bathing all year round due to the fact that the country is a tropical one. The beaches around the northern coastline are fringed with palm trees whereas the rest of the coastlines are bordered with coconut trees and thereby providing a best chance to learn how to produce toddy.

🇱🇰Ambalangoda Masks 🇱🇰 (අම්බලන්ගොඩ )

Traditional Face Mask - Sri Lanka

The small town of Ambalangoda is famous for its masks and puppet crafts. Through the years, locals from the area have mastered the art of creating intricate, eerie and colourful masks and puppets, most of which have played an interesting part in the culture and heritage of the island.

Sri Lanka Mask Industry
At a time when the people worshipped trees and animals, masks were an indispensable part of Sri Lankan rituals and ceremonies. Now centuries later they are more of an interesting oddity. However, the traditional mask industry is still a thriving business that continues to fascinate both locals and tourists alike. With their colourful facades, odd shapes and intriguing histories, traditional Sri Lankan masks are commonly found adorning the walls of local houses. They also make excellent souvenirs. All masks have grotesque features that make them all the more interesting. Most masks feature gaping, misshapen mouths; sinister, bulging eyes; and bright, vivid colours. The local masks can be divided into several categories depending on their uses.

Some masks are used during ancestor worship, certain spiritual rituals and healing ceremonies. There are masks that are related to hunting, fertility and even exorcism. The exorcism masks are used during funerals and a ritual known as the tovil. Such ceremonies are still held in certain parts of the island and can be quite interesting to watch. Currently, the art of mask making is concentrated among a ambalangoda peoples who reside in Ambalangoda, Wathugedara mahaambalangoda as well as some parts along the Western coast.The timber that is used to make these decorative and colourful masterpieces should always be light and durable and therefore trees such as “Rukkattana” and “Diyakanduru” are used. There are different types of mask categories that are used in Sri Lanka which includes.

Raksha Mask – Used to perform Raksha dances in KolamMaduwa. According to ancient chronicles, Sri Lanka was earlier ruled by a race of Rakshasas (devils) whose king was Ravana of the legend Ramayana. These Rakshasas were able to assume various forms which now the masks depict. There are 24 forms of Rakshasas but only a few are performed in Kolam dance. These masks include the cobra mask, the mask of a bird and the mask of the demon of death.
Sanni Mask – These are used to treat illnesses while there are 18 sanni masks in use.
Kolam Mask– This type is used mainly in dramas while popular kolam masks are Lenchina and Jasaya.

🐒🐊🦜🐍🐠🐿️ Madu Ganga River 🐊🐍🦢🐿️🦜🐒🐠
Madu Ganga, situated close to the town of Balapitiya in Sri Lanka’s Galle District, has become an increasingly popular destination for boat safaris because of the variety of attractions. The name "Madu Ganga" meaning “Madu River”, is also spelt “Maduganga” or “Madhu Ganga”.

The amphibic landscape of Maduganga is Sri Lanka’s largest remaining mangrove swamp, home to several fish and reptile species. It’s a fantastic birding territory, too. Together with the smaller Randombe Lake, which is situated closer to the ocean, but further south, and linked with Madu River by two natural channels, it forms the Madu Ganga Wetland, inhabited by more than 300 species of plants and almost 250 species of vertebrate animals. Due to its rich biodiversity, Madu Ganga was listed under the International Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, an international treaty for the conservation and sustainable use of wetlands. The Convention on Wetlands is named after the city of Ramsar in Iran, where it was signed in 1971.

🇱🇰 🌳🐘🐘 Sri lankan Elephants 🐘🐘🌳 🇱🇰

The Sri Lankan elephant (Elephas maximus maximus) is native to Sri Lanka and one of three recognised subspecies of the Asian elephant. It is the type subspecies of the Asian elephant and was first described by Carl Linnaeus under the binomial Elephas maximus in 1758.[1] The Sri Lankan elephant population is now largely restricted to the dry zone in the north, east and southeast of Sri Lanka. Elephants are present in Udawalawe National Park, Yala National Park, Lunugamvehera National Park, Wilpattu National Park and Minneriya National Park but also live outside protected areas. It is estimated that Sri Lanka has the highest density of elephants in Asia. Human-elephant conflict is increasing due to conversion of elephant habitat to settlements and permanent cultivation.

🇱🇰 AMBULUWAWA SRI LANKA 🇱🇰
Ambuluwawa Tower is located in the suburbs of Gampola Town in Sri Lanka. There has been an increased popularity in recent times especially due to the breathtaking views you can experience when you climb to the top of the Ambuluwawa Tower. It is also known for its narrow spiral staircase which some visitors find challenging to climb. It is one of the coolest places to visit in Sri Lanka if you are up for the challenge.


Ambuluwawa Mountain

Ambuluwawa mountain peak has a height of 3567 feet above sea level. It is located over 1000 feet above from the Gampola Town. The tower is located on the summit of the mountain peak. Since there are no other mountains in the surrounding area and due to its unique location, Ambuluwawa Tower gets an undisturbed view from far away and vice versa. The tower is visible from Gampola Train Station.

Ambuluwawa Tower

The 48 meters tall, cone-shaped tower houses the Stupa (Pagoda) of the Buddhist Temple. As you climb up, it has several viewing platforms for you to enjoy the stunning views. The staircase gets narrower as you go up. The spiral staircase will be a challenging one to climb if you are not comfortable with heights.

🇱🇰 SRI LANKA YALA NATIONAL PARK 🇱🇰
Yala National Park (otherwise known as Ruhuna National Park) is one of Sri Lanka’s must-sees. Located to the south east of the island, this exceptional game reserve is Sri Lanka’s most popular for very good reason. Thought to be home to the greatest density of leopards per square kilometre in the world, Yala covers an area of 1,260 square kilometres and is divided into five blocks. Block I is the most visited portion of the reserve and the most rewarding destination for a leopard safari. Leopards are usually elusive, though in Yala, sightings of them are extremely good – you might see them basking in the sun atop rocky outcrops, in trees, crossing tracks and beside waterholes. Alongside leopards, there are also sloth bears, Asian elephants, deer, monkeys, buffalo and many species of birds. If you’re really set on seeing leopards, Yala will offer you Sri Lanka’s best opportunity.

HISTORY OF YALA
Yala is one of Sri Lanka’s oldest national parks and was designated a wildlife sanctuary as far back as 1900 though it wasn’t until 1938 that it was established as a national park. Right in the heart of Yala sits the Buddhist temple Sithulpawa, and this former monastery is thought to date back 2,000 years. At one time, the monastery is thought to have housed 12,000 inhabitants, and today, it remains an important temple visited by pilgrims across Sri Lanka. Other significant cultural sites in the vicinity include Kataragama and Magul Maha Vihara.

🇱🇰 LIPTON SEAT 🇱🇰

Lipton’s Seat is perhaps the most popular attraction in Haputale. Situated an hour away from Haputale town, Lipton’s Seat is a viewpoint named after the celebrated Thomas Lipton. He was a Scottish businessman who moved to British Ceylon in 1890, where he met James Taylor and together they introduced tea gardens to the country. Prior to Lipton’s arrival, Taylor had attempted to grow coffee on the island, however, the coffee plantations were devastated by a leaf-blight. With Lipton’s help, the two men embarked on a business venture which would outlive their lifetimes.

A Viewing Point Like No Other
Lipton’s Seat is a popular vantage point, from where Thomas Lipton would sit with a cup of tea in hand and proudly look over his estate. Today, you can still have one of the best views from the lookout, and there is even a life-sized statue of Lipton on a bench to take pictures with! It is recommended that you go early in the morning to avoid the crowds and the late-morning fog. From here you will see one of the most breathtaking views, as the sun rises, the hills turn from a dark blue to vibrant green, the sky transforms into a kaleidoscope of colour from lilac with a burst of pink and orange before finally turning blue… to say this view is beautiful almost seems like an understatement. By noon though, the views get washed over by a blanket of mist, so plan your visit accordingly. This is definitely a must-visit which will be enjoyed by anyone.

🇱🇰 𝙋𝙤𝙡𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙖𝙧𝙪𝙬𝙖, 𝙎𝙧𝙞 𝙇𝙖𝙣𝙠𝙖🇱🇰

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐰𝐚?
Polonnaruwa Kingdom or the Ancient city of Polonnaruwa was the second capital of Sri Lanka for three centuries between the 11th to 13th century after the destruction of Anuradhapura Kingdom in 993. It is located in north central province of Sri Lanka. Due to its archeological prominence and the ancient technological superiority UNESCO declared Polonnaruwa as a World Heritage in 1982 under the name of Ancient City of Polonnaruwa.

𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐰𝐚 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐝𝐨𝐦:-

Polonnaruwa was the first declared capital city by King Vijayabahu, who defeated Chola invaders in 1070 to reunite the nation once more under a local leader. During the time of the great King Parakramabahu who led the country between the times of 1153 – 1186 sustained such heroic scales in rice cultivation by constructing the massive irrigation network with reservoirs that look like natural in land seas. Sri Lanka became known as the Granary of the Orient. Polonnaruwa consists of ruins of the glorious kingdom of the Great King Parakramabahu. The richness and the glamor of this kingdom are still evident. Today the ancient city of Polonnaruwa remains one of the best planned archaeological relic sites in the country, standing testimony to the discipline and greatness of the Kingdom’s first rulers.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐤𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐡𝐮:-

The time of King Parakramabahu was considered as the Golden Age of Polonnaruwa. Trade and agriculture flourished under the patronage of the king, who was so adamant that no drop of water falling from the heavens was to be wasted and each was to be used toward the development of the land. Hence, irrigation systems that are far superior to those of the Anuradhapura age were constructed during Parakramabahu’s reign – systems which to this day supply the water necessary for paddy cultivation during the scorching dry season in the east of the country. The greatest of these systems is the Parakrama Samudra or the Sea of Parakrama.

Originally this was a seven storied building with approximately 1000 chambers, built by the King Parakramabahu the Great (1153-1186) located within the archaeological site of Polonnaruwa UNESCO World Heritage. The Palace was called as Vijayantha Prasada. Since it has consisted of 7 stories, the building also called “Sath Bumupaya” (in Sinhala). The remaining huge walls with thickness over one meter and part of stairs and the foundation walls give you an idea about the size of the building. These massive walls over a meter thick going up to about 30 FT and the bottom half of the main stairway which led to upper floors can be seen today and parts of melted brick walls caused by intense heat when this was set fire by Chola invaders at the end of Polonnaruwa era. This can be highlighted as an important sight for archaeological educational tour in Sri Lanka.

𝐑𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐕𝐞𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚 (𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐩𝐚) (𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐜𝐥𝐞)

It is a magnificent stupa situated in Polonnaruwa which is a perfect destination to experience archaeological educational tour and is the 4th largest stupa in Sri Lanka. It was built by the King Nissanka Malla (1187-1196). The stupa of Rankoth Vehera is in the center of a large square terrace. There are four entrances to the main building with four cardinal points. Rankoth Vehera's design was inspired by the traditional stupas in Anuradhapura Maha Viharaya and bears a close resemblance to Ruwanwelisaya.

𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐮𝐦, 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐰𝐚:-

Though the museum looks like a small, simple hut from outside it consists of a variety of informative visuals and artefacts inside. It is composed with information regarding the monuments and statues and other brick works (A miscellaneous collection of small articles commonly of ornamental or sentimental value). Archaeological Museum of Polonnaruwa has rooms dedicated to the citadel, the outer city, the monastery area and Hindu monuments. The latter room contains a wonderful selection of bronzes, including some outstanding Shiva statues. You may obtain your entrance ticket to Polonnaruwa UNESCO site from the museum as well.

𝐊𝐢𝐫𝐢 𝐕𝐞𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚 (𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐩𝐚)

It is a whitewashed, 80 feet tall, peaceful stupa and is the second largest stupa in this protected archeological site in Sri Lanka. Kiri Vehara was constructed in the 11th century AD, by King Parakramabahu's queen, Queen Subhadra. The original name Rupavathi Chaitya, later named to Kiri Vehara, which means 'white stupa', which is because of its lime washed coating.

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐰𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐠𝐞 (𝐂𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫)

It was constructed during the reign of the king Parakramabahu to house the Buddha's tooth relic or during the reign of Nissanka Malla of Polonnaruwa to house the Buddha's alms bowl. Both of these revered artifacts would have given the edifice a great deal of historical value. This edifice is a superb example of a typical Sri Lankan Vatadage, as it is built in the Buddulakara or bubble-shaped pattern. This is recommended place for archeological educational tours in Sri Lanka.


𝐍𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐚 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐚:-

A very unique structure built by King Nissankamalla in the 1100s, the Nissanka Latha Mandapaya is believed to be the recitation house for Buddhist chanting (Pirith). Nissanka Latha Mandapaya is one-of-a-kind Sri Lankan building. For a variety of reasons, this architectural marvel is unique.

𝐆𝐚𝐥 𝐕𝐢𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚:-

Gal Vihara or previously known as Uththara Ramaya is a Buddhist rock shrine in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Polonnaruwa in Sri Lanka. This is one of the must visited places if you visit to Polonnaruwa. It features four rock statues, each depicting a different Buddha image. The first one is where Buddha is seated on a lotus, the second one is also a seated figure but smaller in size, the third one is a standing figure, and the last one is a reclining figure. Gal Vihara is the most prominent of all hundred temples that were built throughout Sri Lanka by the king Parakramabahu. It is important in Buddhist pilgrimage tours in Sri Lanka.


𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐝𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐚 (𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞)

Moonstone, is a unique element of ancient architecture. Sandakada Pahana is a magnificently carved semi-circular stone slab usually placed at the bottom of staircases and entrances. It demonstrates religious beliefs in diversified manner. Archeologists believes that the Sandakada Pahana symbolizes the cycle of Saṃsāra in Buddhism. Recommend witnessing this historical symbol during your holiday in Sri Lanka which gives you an insight of centuries old Buddhist Culture of Sri Lanka.

𝐋𝐨𝐭𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐧𝐝:-

The historic pond of Nelum Pokuna (Lotus Pond) has a distinctive design created by ancient Sri Lankan architects. The pond's name comes from its design, which resembles a fully blossomed lotus flower. This pond is small in comparison to the other ponds in Polonnaruwa's ancient city, and it is made of stones. The structural design of the Nelum Pokuna Theatre in Colombo also has been inspired by this Lotus Pond. One of the unique ancient constructions in Ancient City of Polonnaruwa.

𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐤𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐚 𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐮𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐲:-

Parakrama Samudraya is a freshwater body which was built in the 11th century by the king Parakramabahu the Great. The Parakrama Samudraya, also known as the ‘Sea of Parakrama,' was developed as an irrigation solution to deliver water to the kingdom's vast paddy fields. The Parakrama Samudra continues to provide water to about 18,000 acres of nearby agriculture fields. Also we recommend you to have a boat ride in Parakrama Samudraya during your family adventure holiday in Sri Lanka.

The Parakramabahu statue is a colossal statue in Polonnaruwa Ancient City that faces the Parakrama Samudra Reservoir. The statue was created by King Parakramabahu I and is placed near the Potgul Vihara monastic complex. The figure itself is carved into a large rock during the 12th Century AD. It is one of the finest stone statues belonging to this period. Close to twelve feet tall, this statue is of a man with a grave, but wise expression with half-closed eyes and a sad smile as he reads from what most think is a manuscript he holds in his hands at around chest height.
Study of Ancient Irrigation Management
This is an educational technical tour about ancient irrigation of Sri Lanka focusing Polonnaruwa. In Polonnaruwa it can evaluate water diversion methodologies of ancient Sri Lanka. A huge stone anicut can be seen across the Ambangaga, a river that starts from the knuckles range in the central hills of Sri Lanka. The king Mahasen built a stone anicut to divert a great portion of water towards the lake Minneriya in 3rd Century AD. From Minneriya Lake, water was diverted to two other massive reservoirs called Kanthale and Kaudulla. This study is mostly applicable in educational tours in Sri Lanka and will be conducted by Institute of Dry Zone Ecology & Environmental Studies
