Dambulla Cave Temple

 

 

 

 

Climb a short distance up the 600 foot gneiss and behind this white-washed façade you will find a series of caves that stretch far back into the rock. Step in from the sunlit surrounds into the caves and as your eyes get accustomed to the gloom you will see statues and dagobas and beautiful murals which cover every inch of the cave roof and walls.
