Ayurveda Isiwara Paura - Healthy side of your life
Health spa
😐 A bit disappointing. The place looks authentic, it is surrounded by nature which is nice but also means a lot of mosquitoes. At first I thought about taking just a simple massage (30$) for an hour but decided to try Shirodhara (oil on the forehead) for 55$. The idea is great: you are lying outside,...

Cargills Food City - Dambulla 1
Supermarket
👍 The usual Cargills Food City standards apply here. In fact, I felt that the overall ambience and cleanliness is higher than what I am used to in Colombo.
There is a liquor counter upstairs which is accessible via a very narrow stairway.
There isn't much parking but overall this place is very conve...

Sigiriya Lion Rock
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Decided to go up for just around sunrise and what a great decision. The climb up wasn't too bad. Most people with a little patience and time could climb up however if you struggle with stairs then this is definitely not for you.
The view from the top is fantastic and you can get a real sense of h...
