Visit and see Rubber tapping
Image

Each night a rubber tapper must remove a thin layer of bark along a downward half spiral on the tree trunk. If done carefully and with skill, this tapping panel will yield latex for up to 5 years. Then the opposite side will be tapped allowing this side to heal over. The spiral allows the latex to run down to a collecting cup. The work is done at night so the latex will run longer before drying out.

Pahiyangala Cave

Pahiyangala is just 12kms away Where the pre-historic man lived 37,000 years ago.Valuable fossils of the pre-historic man have been found in this pit. A large rocky mountain loomed before us through the misty morning, when we were proceeding towards the village "Yatagampitiya" 5 km off Bulathsinhala in the Kalutara district, where an early human habitation existed thousands of years ago, today known as "Pahiyangala".

Indeed, it is a wonderful creation of nature and we had to climb up a long flight of stone steps to reach the main cave, which formed like a cobra's head naturally. Certainly, you will hold back your breath for a few seconds seeing the hugeness of this cave, measuring, 200ft in length and 150ft in height, supposed to be the largest rock cave in Sri Lanka and 3000 people could be sheltered in it very easily.
