Munneshwaram Temple
Rama after winning the battle with King Rawana started his return journey towards Ayodhya by Pushpaka Vimaana. Sita, Lakshmana, Vibishana and several others accompanied Rama. “Brahmahthi Dhosha”which arose as a result of killing King Rawana assumed the form of a dark shadow following him. When the air chariot was passing over Munneshwara temple Rama felt that the “Brahma Dhosha”was leaving. Rama was astonished over this strange feeling which he realized due to some unknown divine reasons.

Manavari
Manawari is the first place where Lord Rama installed and prayed the Shiva Lingam after the end of war with King Rawana. To date this Lingam is called as Ramalinga.

Rawana Hot Water Wells
The hot wells of Kanniyai or Kanniya are close to the main road to Anuradhapura, in Trincomalee town. Pilgrims believe in the healing powers of the warm water. There are many different versions of the myth on how these curative hot water wells came into existence. Most of them are connected to Ravana. One legend about Kanniya's origin has it, that this is the place where King Ravana carried out the last rites for his mother. When he was unable to find water to duly perform the rites, he in anger pierced his Trishula into the ground seven times. Water started gushing out immediately. The very first hot water cooled down to the present degree when Ravana's anger calmed down. The temperature of the water is different in all the seven springs

Arrival at Bangkok & Transfer to Pattaya and Alcazar Show

After Breakfast check-out from the hotel and proceed to Sigiriya Visit Sigiriya Fortress THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LANKAPURA RAMAYANA AND SIGIRIYA In the rock garden area of Sigiriya there is a Cobra Hooded Cave. It is a rock-shelter surmounted by a boulder in the form of a cobra hood. It is believed as one of many hideouts of Sita on Lankan soil after captivity by Ravana. An inscription mentioning a Naguliya Lena is said to be a proof for it as Naguliya is identified with Sita as allegedly both names can have the same meaning born from a furrow, because "Naguliya" could be derived from the words for snakes and for plough. In the Ramayana Trail legend, even the ancient rock fortress Sigiriya itself is sometimes claimed to have been a palace of Ravana Evening enjoy Traditional Village Tour in Hiriwadunna (Hiriwadunna Traditional Villege Trek to experience the traditional village cultures of Sri Lanka)
