Dambulla is a UNESCO World Heritage Site constructed around a huge solitary granite mass. Dambulla is formed from the terms Damba, which means rock, and Ulla, which means fountain. Dambulla temple complex consists of five caverns that have been turned into shrine chambers, Buddha statues, and over 1,500 ceiling paintings. The caverns are located at the base of a 150-meter-high rock that King Valagambahu erected after fleeing Anuradhapura in the first century BC.
