Sri Lanka is more than just golden beaches and lush tea hills—it’s a sacred land woven into one of the world’s oldest and most beloved epics: the Ramayana.
Our Rama-Sita Odyssey Tour is not just a sightseeing experience; it’s a soulful pilgrimage into the heart of Hindu mythology. Walk the very ground where Lord Rama searched for his beloved Sita, where Hanuman flew across oceans, and where epic battles between good and evil were believed to have taken place.
🌍 Why is Sri Lanka Sacred in the Ramayana?
According to the ancient Hindu scripture, the Ramayana, Sri Lanka was the kingdom of Ravana, the demon king who abducted Sita. Sita was held in captivity on this island, and the monumental war between Rama and Ravana occurred here.
Sri Lanka, then known as Lanka, plays a central role in the epic, with over 50 sites across the island associated with key moments in the story. From spiritual temples and ancient gardens to mountain peaks and natural formations, the island holds countless landmarks that echo the power, love, and devotion of the Ramayana.
🛕 Key Places You’ll Visit on the Rama-Sita Odyssey Tour
This thoughtfully curated 11-day journey covers the most spiritually significant Ramayana sites in Sri Lanka:
🛕 1. Munneswaram & Manavari Temples (Chilaw)
It is believed that Lord Rama visited Munneswaram to pray to Lord Shiva after defeating Ravana. At nearby Manavari, Lord Shiva is said to have appeared, and the first Rama Lingam was consecrated here—marking the only lingam named after Lord Rama outside India.
🌿 2. Seetha Amman Temple & Ashok Vatika (Nuwara Eliya)
This temple stands where Sita is believed to have been held captive by Ravana in a lush grove known as Ashok Vatika. You can still see the Sita Eliya stream, where she is said to have bathed. The energy here is peaceful, spiritual, and incredibly emotional.
🦍 3. Sri Bhakta Hanuman Temple (Ramboda)
Built by the Chinmaya Mission, this modern temple honors Hanuman, the divine monkey warrior. It is believed that Hanuman rested here while searching for Sita. The view of the valley from this temple is breathtaking.
🏞️ 4. Sigiriya Rock Fortress
Though not explicitly mentioned in the Ramayana, many believe Sigiriya may have been one of Ravana’s ancient palaces. Its majestic rock fortress, ancient frescoes, and engineering marvels make it a fascinating stop for historical and spiritual exploration.
🛐 5. Kelaniya Temple (Colombo)
This sacred site is said to be where King Vibhishana (Ravana’s brother who sided with Rama) was crowned king after Ravana’s fall. Today, it is an important Buddhist temple with deep Hindu connections.
🐘 6. Ravana Falls and Caves (Ella)
Visit the stunning Ravana Ella Falls and explore nearby caves where Ravana is said to have hidden Sita. These natural wonders connect you to the physical beauty of Lanka and the emotional tension of the epic tale.
🌅 7. Dondra & Yala Region
Linked to Ravana’s defense mechanisms and mystical aircraft landings, these southern sites are both mysterious and spiritually rich. The journey here is as rewarding as the story behind it.
