Raxagala

Raxagala is also known as Kinihira Kanda which is the second-highest peak in the Dolosbage
range, Sri Lanka. Raxagala Mountain stands at 1.438 meters (4,718 feet) in height.
Raxagala
Ravana is included in many of the mountains' legends. This particular mountain has a niche.
According to legend, Ravana's weapons factory was located on Raxagala Peak. The villagers
claim that a fire that broke out one day in the past set fire to the iron plant. The ashes were
swept away to a village below after the eruption. The village was later called Alugolla,
according to legend.

Going up this rock, as well as the stone steps along the way, gives the impression that this
location has a lot of history. The placement of these stones, as well as their colors, create a
stunning scene.

According to archaeologists, the name Raxagala came from the fact that Raksha tribes were
worshiped in this area, but they are still gathering evidence before drawing any conclusions
about the Raksha tribes' location.
