Rank : 7.0 (average on 1 votes)

Coordinates : 7.41345524243265, 81.10874788208255 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : Dambana is an area of forest where you can meet the Veddas, the natives of the island who still live in the traditional way in the forest, hunting with bows and arrows. Putting "Dambana Wedi Gammanaya" in the navigator you will arrive at a village that is actually a reconstruction/museum for tourists; here, however, you can ask some of the Veddas present to visit their real homes (which are not in the village, but scattered in the forest), and by doing so you can have a more genuine knowledge of this people, now reduced to a few thousand people in all of Sri Lanka.

Recommended equipment : Wide angle, standard zoom, portrait lens.

Best months : All year round.

How to get there : You can put Dambana Wedi Gammanaya, the reconstructed village, in the navigator; Park your car here and then ask someone present to take you with them.

Visits : Visit free, but I recommend leaving a small tip or buying some of their handicrafts.
