Tissamaharama, Sri Lanka

Tissamaharama Sri Lanka

A majestic stupa is mistaken for the high jungle cups somewhere on Sri Lanka's southern coast. As we move forward, the splendour of Tissamaharama, a town of great importance in the ancient Cingales Kingdom of Ruhuna, is discovered before us in the 3rd century AD.C, wrapped in five different lakes. Considered one of the base centers to get to know Yala National Park, Tissamaharama also includes other cultural gems worth visiting: from the incredible Lake Tissa Va to the Sithulpawa Rock Temple or Tissa Dagoba, two of the main temples of the town today become authentic references for hundreds of pilgrims.
