2025 Matale Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

The Aluvihare Rock Temple is a popular and impressive temple which you should visit if you are in Matale District. This landmark is far from the nearest city, you must arrange a private driver to get there. The recommended sightseeing time is between one to two hours. This may be one of the most interesting Buddhist temples I've ever visited. It's situated on top of a rock and consists of several buildings and caves with a stupa on the very top of the rock. There is no need to hire a guide, however, if you are into history and want to know more details of the art work then you might need one. Local tour guides are abundant and not too expensive. #createwithtrip #srilanka

Highly recommended hikes for lion rock - a beautiful view of lion rock from Pidurangala Rock. Wake up in the morning for a cool sunrise hike to the top, no humidity and no sun, easier stroll, be sure you’re able to climb and scramble at some parts along the hike as there’s only a little rope to support. Sunset was incredible here too, we left the rock for the day, hiked back up in the evening to watch the sunset and see the blood moon from the top of the rock, also some cheeky monkeys at the top of the rock that will try and take your food so be cautious of these. Also 1000LKR per visit, even if you go up in the morning your ticket isn’t valid for the evening so you will have to purchase a second ticket when you go up the second time #view #hike #sunrise #sunset #srilanka

I went to Matale Hindu Temple in Matale, on the way from Kandy to Dambulla in Sri Lanka! This is a temple for Hindus, a minority in Sri Lanka. The temple is impressive with its bright yellow color and many gods. You cannot enter the temple on Sundays due to prayers, so if you want to go inside, we recommend going on a weekday. Why not go and check it out? #0 yen trip February 2025 📍Location: 680/17 Main Street, Matale, Sri Lanka

#celebrateit An ancient rock fortress in Sri Lanka is a must visit place due to its history and importance. Locals call it the eighth wonder of the world. Visiting Sigiriya rock was an interesting experience for us. Unfortunately we happened to climb with many other tourists during to holidays in Sri Lanka, but once you are on the top, you don’t feel the crowd anymore, and can just enjoy the beauty of the views and nature around you.

We happened to dine in Sigiriya Wew Thawulla Restaurant during our stay in Hotel Sigiriya. It is located a short walk away from our hotel at the junction between Sigiriya Road and Hotel Road. It is also a stone's throw away from Sigiriya bus stand. There are a few roadside restaurants on the same stretch of road which offer similar food. This area also offers amazing views of the Sigiriya Rock Fortress, the most iconic landmark in Sri Lanka. The restaurant serves eastern, western, Chinese and Sri Lankan food. We ordered fried noodles, koththu roti and juices. The food was delicious in generous portions.
