Grottoes

旅の径
World Heritage Site - Danbul Grottoes is the largest and most famous and well-preserved cave temple in Sri Lanka. A small half-day tour of the grottoes is arranged, and the impression of 4 o'clock is still fresh. 1. The ancient caves. Danbuler Grottoes were built in 89 BC (one said 1-2 century AD), earlier than the Mogao Grottoes built in 366 AD in China. After more than 1,000 years of unremitting efforts, 5 caves and caves were formed between the rock walls of the boulders (186 meters high). 2. Like the beauty. The 2100 square meters mural and 157 Buddha statues in the grotto are all the treasures of Buddhist art. The most beautiful murals. The Buddha statues in the grotto No. 2 - Dawang Grottoes are made from the top and the walls of the caves. The most beautiful statues. Grottoes No. 1 - The 14-meter-long reclining Buddha in Tianwang Grottoes is huge, peaceful and line-by-line. 3. Fun of monkeys. From the foot of the mountain to the grotto, it takes more than 20 minutes to walk on the mountain road with more than 400 steps. Along the way, the view is wide, the air is fresh, and the monkeys can be seen in groups, or play, or play, or exercise. The locals told: store shoes, not to prevent people from stealing, but to prevent monkeys from grabbing. 4. Feet pain. Take off your shoes and you can enter the hole to show piety. Hot sand, lame stones, footboards hurt so much... Nobody ever reminded to wear thick socks.

The monastery is built on the top of the mountain, more than ten kilometers from Kandy city, and needs to be chartered. The main building is very solemn in white appearance, with exquisite carvings on the walls, exquisite murals in the temple, and auxiliary buildings with white towers and Buddha footprints next to it. The ticket is 300rb with a detailed introduction. Down the mountain you can overlook the beautiful pastoral scenery near Kandy.

The Amaya Mountain Hotel is located halfway up the mountain in the southern mountainous area of Kandy Ancient City. The environment is quiet and charming, and the traffic between the two tourist cities of Kandy and Nuwara Eliya has been very popular. Leaving Kandy Lake in the night and driving for nearly 20 minutes to the hotel. The atrium-style lobby is towering and spacious, and the exquisite decoration creates a warm atmosphere. The passionate piano teacher plays melodious music...a little fresh and romantic feeling. In the early morning, look out from the railing, the red roof, the green vegetation, and most of the Kandy city have a panoramic view; The elf mountain in the distance, the blue Buddha statue on the top of the mountain, in the faint morning mist in the time and the time... the scenery is unique here.

It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the museum. This is a lot of squares, which are said to be a place to celebrate independence. Its greening is well done and suitable. Walking here at dusk.
