 How to get to Embekke Devalaya.
By Car
by car you just need to follow the Kandy highway or Kandy Rd/A1 as it's commonly known without any turn offs till the turn for the Gadaladeniya Rd. Condition of the road is excellent, other than for areas that are under construction (sometimes). Traffic conditions are varied as there might be some traffic blocks from Colombo fort to Nittambuwa, and in major towns and cities along the way. There are number of renting option if you are looking to rent a vehicle.
By Bus
you can get on an AC bus or a semi luxury bus from Colombo-Pettah Bus stand. The bus service has got very good over the years and there are buses available throughout the day for both ways. If you’re traveling with lots of luggage buses are not a good option. But if you’re traveling light buses are a good hassle free option. You’d have to get off at Gadaladeniya Junction and get a Tuk Tuk for the rest of the journey. 3 hours.
By Train
There are train services operating multiple times daily to Kandy from the main train terminal in Colombo-Fort. You can book seats on first and second class trains at the Colombo-Fort terminal. Most of the route is through mountains and you can enjoy some amazing views, specially during the morning and during the day time. 2-3 hours.
