You’ll think this is a lot of stairs, my phone recorded it as 10 flights of stairs, but that’s nothing compared to Lion Rock that came in at 39 flights! Both well worth the exercise! 🏋️♀️
A short but easy hike. A bit high in price for the ticket: 1500 LKR per person but totally worth it. Each cave has a lot of different images of Buddha. Lots of Buddhists gathering and some tourists.
This complex of cavesharbours a beautiful collection of frescoes and statues depicting Buddha. Well worth the climb up some treacherous, slippery stairs. Make sure you cover legs and shoulders.
Read up on each of the caves before you go so you know what to look for. You have to remove your shoes, and the cement can be hot, especially midday, so sensitive feet may need socks.
Totally worth it. Short walk up to temples glorifying Buddha with lots of wall paintings/statues built by various Kings; the first one carved out of the mountain 2,000 years ago. A Sri Lanka top ten!
So amazing and impressive - Unesco world heritage site! You'll be amazed by the monkeys while u are climbing the steps, even if you are lucky you can see them while breastfeeding the baby monkeys!
An amazing workmanship and a very spritual place. Monkes running around is fun to watch (be carefull if you have food with you), only thing was taking off the shoes on a rainy day.
Muito legal ver a quantidade de estátuas de buddha e as diferenças e semelhanças entre elas. Vale ampena contratar um gruia pra saber mais sobre a história do lugar.
Easily accessible but be prepared 2sweat. Hide ur shoes before reaching the entrance, else they will make u leave them there for 25rp. The caves themselves were worth visiting but no more than 30mins
When going up to the caves beware of evil monkeys! They want to take you bag because they think there's foos in it. They litterally attack you, so be prepares to wave a stick at them!
They just introduce a big fee for entering in the temple. They also ask for money for taking care of your shoes. I thought that Budha was against money:)
Cuando entras en el templo se respira mucha paz y tranquilidad. Claro está cuando yo viajé no había tantos turistas, ahora es otra cosa. Pude experimentar el antes y después.
Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, the cavetemples were originally built in the 1st century BC by King Wattagamini Abhaya. Be sure to visit all 5 ancient caves featuring granite carved statues. อ่านข้อมูลเพิ่มเติม

Meh! I mean it's nice, but nothing special. And keep on mind that you need to put your shoes off and the ground burns as hell. Better to come in the morning.
Don't follow google maps as it will take u on a wrong path, ask the local people instead. Did not enter the rock temple, as I found it ridiculously expensive - 15 dollars
