About Nathagane Aranya Senasanaya
Nathagane Aranya Senasanaya is an ancient cave temple that is believed to have been a fort, an Aramaic complex, a palace, and a temple at different times in the past. It is believed that King Vattagamini Abhaya after being defeated by the Indian Tamil invaders has stayed in here and later he has gone making caves having natural defenses. After his victory over Indian invaders, all these caves had been converted to cave temples thus the same happened with Nathagane Aranya Senasanaya.

Nathagane Aranya Senasanaya has a very unique structure. It was a very neglected site on the mountain which was revived during the Kandyan era. The architectural features of one of the image houses show styles that are popular during the Kandyan Era. The other image house and other cave buildings are very old and are believed to have been built in the Anuradhapura kingdom.

关于库鲁内格勒区

库鲁内格勒是斯里兰卡瓦扬巴省和库鲁内格勒区的首府。库鲁内格勒曾是斯里兰卡的皇家都城,但仅存在了50年之久,从13世纪末到19世纪初。不过,在此之前,它就因其优越的地理位置而备受瞩目,北邻亚帕胡瓦,南接丹巴德尼亚,东靠潘杜瓦斯努瓦拉,周边环绕着其他雄伟的要塞。埃塔加拉山是一座高达316米的巨岩,耸立于海拔116米的库鲁内格勒城之上,其形状酷似一头大象。库鲁内格勒是斯里兰卡的交通枢纽,拥有火车站,并有多条主要公路连接着该国的重要地区。库鲁内格勒距离科伦坡约94公里,距离康提约42公里。库鲁内格勒的大部分居民属于僧伽罗族。其他少数民族包括斯里兰卡摩尔人、斯里兰卡泰米尔人、布尔格人和马来人。少数民族居民遍布城市各处,但摩尔人和泰米尔人主要集中在泰利亚贡纳 (Teliyagonna) 和威尔戈达 (Wilgoda) 地区。

关于西北省

西北省是斯里兰卡的一个省份。库鲁内格勒 (Kurunegala) 和普塔勒姆 (Puttalam) 两县组成了西北省,也称韦扬巴省 (Wayamba)。省会库鲁内格勒人口为 28,571 人。该省以其众多的椰子种植园而闻名。省内其他主要城镇包括奇劳 (Chilaw,人口 24,712 人) 和普塔勒姆 (Puttalam,人口 45,661 人),这两个城镇都是小型渔村。韦扬巴省的大多数人口为僧伽罗族。普塔勒姆附近也有相当数量的斯里兰卡摩尔人,乌达普 (Udappu) 和穆内斯瓦拉姆 (Munneswaram) 则居住着大量的斯里兰卡泰米尔人。渔业、虾类养殖和橡胶种植是该地区的其他主要产业。该省面积7,888平方公里,人口2,184,136(2005年统计)。韦扬巴是斯里兰卡第三大稻米产区。

韦扬巴农业经济高度发达,除了椰子、橡胶和水稻等传统种植作物外,还种植各种水果、蔬菜、花卉、香料和油籽。肥沃的土壤和多样的气候使韦扬巴具备种植几乎所有作物的潜力。韦扬巴(又称西北省)拥有古老的佛教岩石寺庙,以及宏伟的潘杜瓦斯努瓦拉、丹巴德尼亚、亚帕胡瓦和库鲁内格勒等城堡。这些城堡、宫殿、佛教寺庙和修道院的壮丽遗迹为游客提供了令人兴奋的观光体验。
