Deep within the forests of the Uva Province, near the sacred city of Mahiyanganaya, lies Dambana—the primary settlement of the Wannila Aththo, Sri Lanka’s indigenous Vedda community. Believed to be the direct descendants of the island’s Neolithic inhabitants from 18,000 BC, the Vedda people are the true “people of the forest.” At Ceylon2World, we invite you to experience a world where life is still governed by the whispers of the jungle and the wisdom of ancestors. A visit to Dambana is not a typical sightseeing tour; it is an intimate cultural exchange. We facilitate respectful encounters that allow you to witness a rapidly disappearing way of life, ensuring your visit supports the community’s efforts to preserve their unique language, rituals, and forest-based identity.
