THE PLACE

Ambagasthanna Kurukuththala Ambalama sits along a minor road near Kadugannawa, one of the resting places that once served travelers on the hill-country routes. Local tradition places it in the Kandyan period, but no firm construction date has been established.


Its significance lies in its survival: part of the older network of roads and waypoints that once moved people through this terrain.
