These statues of Lord Buddha are inside the cave temple are some of the fine examples of the Creativity of the ancient people. Some of the ancient ruins exist with few kilometer radiuses from this temple and most of the people are not aware of it. Maligathanne Cave Temple, Pilikuththuwa cave temple, Urugala Walagamba cave temple are few examples.
