Kothmale
Mountain Rains, Rice Plains
Introduction
Tucked down in the heart of Sri Lanka’s mountains, Kotmale was a little-known but significant player in the nation’s past. Rain showered on rice fields in the valleys below thanks to forests protected by Sinhalese kings, and during turbulent times, the village itself acted as a haven for Prince Dutugamunu and a covert location for the sacred tooth relic.
