About this experience

Yatagala Raja Maha Viharaya

A short tuk-tuk ride from the beach, Yatagala Raja Maha Viharaya is a 2,000-year-old cave temple carved into a granite outcrop. A reclining Buddha, painted murals and a small dagoba sit within the cool cave; peaceful gardens and jungle surround it.
