What makes Kandy to Yapahuwa Day Tour a unique experience ?
Yapahuwa is a historical site in Sri Lanka with rich cultural and architectural significance. It was once a fortress and served as the capital of Sri Lanka briefly during the 13th century under King Bhuvanekabahu I. Yapahuwa is famous for its impressive rock fortress and the intricate stone staircase that leads up to a stupa, which remains one of its most iconic features. The staircase, with beautifully carved lion statues and other intricate stonework, reflects the craftsmanship of the era and draws comparisons to the grandeur of Sigiriya and other ancient sites.
Rambadagalla, located in the Kurunegala District of Sri Lanka, is known for its iconic Rambadagalla Vihara and the awe-inspiring Rambadagalla Buddha Statue, which is the tallest rock-carved seated Buddha statue in Sri Lanka. This statue, created from a single block of granite, stands at 67.5 feet and was completed in 2015, after over a decade of work by dedicated artisans and monks.
