Temple of Dambulla One of the myriad Buddha sculptures © Bruno Perousse
A historic and religious site, Dambulla hosts five richly decorated caves. They form a troglodyte temple and hold no less than 150 statues of the Buddha. Access to the temple is not easy. You will have to cross a tiny rock wall whose steepest part is fitted with a couple of makeshift steps. The temple is open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
