Discover Dambana Wedi Gammanaya Everything you need to know before you go

for its eco-tourism prospects, situated about 300km from Colombo, Sri Lanka. The Veddas (indigenous people) preserve a direct line of descent from the island's original Neolithic community dating back from at least 18,000 BC. Joining the Veddas of Sri Lanka in their village gives visitors a unique opportunity to get a firsthand experience of the Vedda culture which remains relatively untarnished by modern technology and commercialization. The Veddas are devoted to their traditions and our guests get to meet with Uruwarige Wanniyalatto, Chief of the Veddas.
