The Golden Buddha is majestic, the Dambulla Golden Temple in Sri Lanka - a unique and inimitable cave temple complex - consists of five caves, each of them has its own name and its own distinctive features:
Devarajalena,
Maharajalena,
Maha Alut Viharaya,
Pachchima Viharaya,
Devana Alut Viharaya,
the first caves of the Dambulla temple were founded as early as the 1st century BC.
The price of the entrance ticket is 1500 Sri Lankan rupees ($ 11), climbing very long steps you need to take off your shoes and then only barefoot, clothes must be closed, knees and shoulders, and you can’t wear a headdress!
On the way to the cave temple on the steps, we met a lot of monkeys, and from the top a view of Sigiriya opened - the Lion Mountain was clearly visible, 18 km from there.
