Gadaladeniya Temple (30 Minutes)

Gadaladeniya Temple is famous for its beautiful stone carvings. This temple was built on a flat rock in the 14th Century. Faded paintings from around that time provide many clues as to the manner in which the temple was built. The art is South Indian, so the general belief is that the workers were also brought down from abroad. The chief architect of this temple had been a South Indian called Ganesvarachari. Therefore, this temple is essentially a South Indian design.
