Kuragala is a pre-historic archaeological site with ruins of ancient Buddhist Cave temple complex, dating back to the 2nd century BC, in Balangoda, Sri Lanka.
Reviewed By malwana - Colombo, Sri Lanka
The 2nd century BC temple complex is located on the Balangoda - Kaltota road approximately 24 km away from the Balangoda town. There is bit of hiking and climbing to reach the top. But once you reach the top the view is amazing and also the cave entrance and the remaning stucture of the stupa is there at the top.
