What you'll do
Sita Kotuwa is one of the most significant Ramayana Trail sites in Sri Lanka — believed to be one of the places King Ravana kept Princess Sita. The site sits in a beautiful remote valley of streams, waterfalls and limestone caves holding ruins of a late-Anuradhapura-era monastery. In the rainy season, the walk passes seven mini waterfalls.
