It's a place of attraction. Where it says the pink stones. All I saw the white rocks and a little pink colours.. had a long walk towards the rock and a small hike to the top place. Not recommended to visit in hot weather.

Calm, peaceful location. Visitors should be more respectful and avoid littering the place.

The Jathika Namal Uyana in Sri Lanka is the largest ironwood forest and pink quartz mountain in Asia. The Ironwood Tree is endemic to Sri Lanka and the replanted forest is over 260 acres in extent. According to archeological researcher’s findings, the pink quartz in this historical place has a history of more than 550 millions of years. Naamal Uyana is an extremely rare forest replanted with Iron wood trees in the 8th Century AD commenced during the starting from King Devanampiyathissa and ending with king Dappula IV. Namal Uyana had been a sanctuary for Buddhist monks during King Devanampiyatissa’s reign in the 8th century. Later it had been used as a prison camp where the punishment was to plant Na trees. King Dappula period it declared it as a human sanctuary. This unique natural place has been brought forward to the attention of the world almost 15 years before, by a Buddhist monk, Venerable Wanawasi Rahula Thero.

Jathika Namal Uyana consists of largest Na forest of Sri Lanka, largest pink quartz reserve of South East Asia and few ancient ruins. This is the forest reserve called Ranawa Kanda. Ranawa RMW is situated about 1km away from Namal Uyana.

It take around 1-2 hour up & down, the mountain is not real pink, but it's beauty. According to the dodo car drive say, there are few people go to the mountain, it's a little dangerous to climb the car with few people ( will encounter some robber or something bad human), it is better to hire a local guy go with you( dodo car driver is ok)

This is one of the very few places in the world where you can see Pink Quartz. So it is a place you should visit if you are visiting Dambulla.
You have to walk through a jungle to reach to the "Rosa Thiruwana" mountain. A calm and quiet place without any disturbances.
If you are a nature lover, you will love this place.response / report this review -
