We start our journey from Mawanella around 8.00 a.m. Our aim was visit important places as much we can during the day. Because now we came to last part of our journey. We have to finish our journey early because of little one’s pending school home work. Our little one strongly refuse to go back to home , he needs more days to go on trip. We have to take extra effort to change his mind & promised we took him another trip in December month . First we visit to “Wattarama Viharaya” & when we at there we were able to watch “Dawal Pererahera” of nearby Dewalaya also. Next we went to “Bissowela Viharaya”at near Galigamuwa town.After that we went to “Beligala Viharaya” . On that way we saw Archeological department notice board for “Beligala Mountain & Ruins”. After visiting “Beligala Viharaya” we went to climb that mountain. It was little difficult path to top of the mountain. Last part of the trail we have to use wooden ladder to reach to top. Ruins of some buildings in top of the mountain. Now some restore work started in there. Next we went to see “Dedigama Kota Vehera” & museum. After that we went to see “Isthreepura Gal Len Viharaya” at Galapitamada road. The name board broken at turning point & we faced difficulties to find it. Around 4.00 p.m we leave from there & came to one of our relatives home in Gampaha. We spent night at there & from morning we went to “Koskandawala Viharaya”. After visiting there we start our return journey back to home. On that way we went few relative houses also. After competing all we came back to home after 14 days of time. We competed our journey with lots of new experiences & happy memories.
