For many centuries, hermit monks lived here in the centre of the island of Sri Lanka, whose particular aptitude in this seclusion was meditation. The climb to the "Temple of the Almighty Buddhas" on the ridge above the small town of Dambulla is steep and arduous. Here are the rock caves of the sacred shrine.

The rock caves of Dambulla were rightly designated "World Cultural Heritage" in 1991.
