Mulkirigala Rock Temple (Mulkirigala Raja Maha Vihara)
Explorations of Mulkirigala start with a steep climb up the steps to the four terraces that house the cave temples. Once there, visitors tour the caves as they wish to view their brightly painted Buddha statues and frescoes. Other sights include a Bo tree and small dagobas—some said to contain relics of the Buddha—and the magnificent views from the summit out over the lush countryside.
- The Mulkirigala Rock Monastery is perfect for nature, history, and culture enthusiasts.
- Be prepared to climb 533 steps to the rock top.
- Watch for the wild monkeys: they may steal any snacks you have.
- Bring sunscreen and bottled water.
- Visitors are required to dress respectfully, with their knees and shoulders covered.
- Mulkirigala is not wheelchair- or stroller-accessible.
