    Great Place for short trip in the wilderness. This was the royal forest park for the king during the Kandyan era. Currently a forest sanctuary. There is an information center located inside the forest. There's a entrance fee that has to be paid at the gate. internal walkways are well marked and named.

    there isnt any wildlife in this place other than monkeys and birds that you see all around this region. There is a pathway and quiet a few tourists end up here as its a decent hike on a easy trail with no major climbs. The place son the map like cave temple are not really accessible as entry is forbidden so it's just the forest for you. There are some interesting plants and trees including a rare tree size creeper that is spread over a large area in the forest. The prices are same for all foreigners including saarc nation citizens.

    Nice and peaceful. We paid 1325 rupees for 2 tickets. 4 stars as the lady on the gate was really slow and I'm pretty sure tickets should have been cheaper. Also don't bother with the hermit cave at the top of the park, there's nothing there. Same with the upper veiw point in the centre of the park, it's surrounded by trees so you can't see anything.

    This is one of the coolest places in the Kandy city. Just can escape from the hustle and bustle of the city to engulf in a peaceful surrounding. Very nice staff and beautiful place.

    Greatest day admiring the natural forest. We was able to plan a short trip there. Allowing our time to move in a positive way. While traveling deep part of the jungle we was able to see some animals on their natural habitat and many kinds of trees. There are some rock caves too
