Dunuwila Lake, Matale: This lake is said to be the site where Lord Rama defeated Ravana with his Brahma Astra. Named “Dunuwila” (meaning “arrow lake” in Sinhala), it holds deep ties to the Ramayana’s epic battle narrative.

Day 4: Sigiriya → Trincomalee

Thirukoneswaram Kovil, Trincomalee: Constructed by Agastya Rishi under Lord Shiva’s guidance, this temple reflects Ravana’s devotion. Lord Rama is believed to have installed a lingam here to atone for killing Ravana, a Brahmin, making it a vital spiritual destination.

Ravana Cave, Ella: Located 2 km from Ella town at the base of a cliff, this cave is said to have been used by Ravana to hide Sita. A popular spot for hikers, it’s a key site on the Ramayana Trail.
Ussangoda Park, Ambalantota: Now a national park, Ussangoda is believed to have been a landing strip for Ravana’s Pushpaka Vimana. Its unique landscape and rich folklore make it a fascinating stop.
