亚帕胡瓦
Yapahuwa
该地区北部的一个安静的乡村地区，围绕着一块引人注目的花岗岩而建，曾一度是中世纪的皇家首都和牙齿遗迹保护区。
概述
亚帕胡瓦 (Yapahuwa) 是库鲁内格勒区 (Kurunegala District) 北部的一个人迹罕至的小型定居点，聚集在一块高耸于周围稻田近百米的花岗岩周围。在 13 世纪的几年里，它是斯里兰卡的首都和神圣的佛牙舍利的故乡，其著名的观赏石楼梯仍然是岛上中世纪僧伽罗建筑最精美的作品之一。它远离主要的旅游路线，提供了一个宁静、大气的废墟，通常只需一两个小时即可探索完毕，最好与周围西北部的古代遗址结合起来。
历史
Yapahuwa was raised into a fortress-capital by King Bhuvanekabahu I around 1273, who moved the seat of the kingdom and the Tooth Relic here for protection against South Indian invasions. After his death the citadel was overrun by a Pandyan army in 1284 and the Tooth Relic was carried off to South India, after which the capital was abandoned and the site later became a Buddhist monastery.

旅游小贴士
- Start early to climb the steep ornamental staircase before the midday sun on the exposed rock.
- Wear sturdy shoes, as the upper section of the rock climb is steep and uneven.
- Buy tickets at the site entrance; the small museum near the base is worth a quick look.
- Bring water and sun protection, as there is little shade on the rock.
- Combine Yapahuwa with nearby Panduwasnuwara or Padeniya as part of a north-western day trip.
