Stripurakanda - Kiriwanagama


Rawana hid Sita in Stripurakanda Caves at Kiriwanagama but changed her place of stay from time to time. This is the most wide and far-reaching cave in Sri Lanka. It is spacious and possible to walk a considerable distance inside. A team of villagers who walked with me inside this cave to a considerable distance had to stop due to earth slips and was able to see bats beyond it. This confirms that this cave extends further.
