Kadadora Viharaya - Kothmale, SriLanka

Kadadora Viharaya is an abandoned Buddhist temple situated in Kadadora in the Nuwara Eliya district. The temple was submerged in water due to the construction of the Kotmale Dam in 1979 under the Mahaweli Development Project. The ruins of this abandoned Buddhist temple can still be seen when the water level of the Kotmale Reservoir goes down, although it is a very rare sight. Photo credit @niluka_fonseka

Kadadora Viharaya in Sri Lanka Itinerary

The Buddhist temple Kadadora Viharaya, also known as Kadadora Sri Priyabimbaramaya Viharaya, was located in Kadadora, Kotmale. As part of the Mahaweli Development Programmer's construction of the Kotmale Dam in 1979, the temple was abandoned and demolished. The remnants of several temples and human dwellings are claimed to be submerged by the reservoir's waters. When the reservoir was erected, it is reported to have flooded more than 14 tea farms, 57 villages, and roughly 54 ancient temples, among other things. However, many regions, including underwater, do not exist at this time. When the water level is decreased, the Kadadora temple and statues of Lord Buddha may still be viewed as a miracle. So this is one of the places you should visit on a Sri Lanka Itinerary.

Due to the persistent drought in the central hills, Locals have been flocking to the Kadadora area to see the ancient remains of Buddhist temples that have risen from the depths of the Kotmale reservoir. When the reservoir was erected in 1979, the temples of the Kadadora Sri Piya Bimbaramaya, Thispane Viharaya, Morape Viharaya, and the Medagoda Devalaya were flooded. Kadadora viharaya is one of the Tourist Attractions in Sri Lanka.
