- Legend : These tunnels prove beyond doubt the architectural brilliance of King Ravana. These tunnels served as a quick means of transport through the hills and also as a secret passage. These tunnels networked all the important cities, airports and dairy farms. A close look at these tunnels indicates that they are man-made and not natural formations.

Existing tunnelmouths are situated lsthripura at Welimada, Ravana cave at Bandarawela,Sena pitiya at Halagala, Ramboda, Labookelle,Wariyapola / Matale and Sitakotuwa/Hasalaka.
