There are few powerful Shivan temples in Sri Lanka. This is one of the best. Why am I saying that. I was start to go there since 2010. But after 2017 I started to go regularly to Kovil. In here Priests are so friendly. And people are so religious. Priests are known about all the poojas. Specially when it comes to personal poojas we can asked them to do it as we wish. And prices for poojas are reasonable. If you visit colombo this is a place you must visit. Opening hours usually 6.00 am to 10.30 a.m. and 6.00 pm to 8.00 pm. You can buy flowers from near boutique. And there is a small tea shop to grab a bite n have plaintea . Visit this great religious place and experience it. And try to meditate for few minutes . Om Namaha Shivaya

We stopped at the Sri Kailawasanathan Swami Devasthanam as we were on our way out of Colombo on Day 4, and I'm glad we did. It was one of the best sights in the city, in my books. It was offbeat, had no entry fees, and was incredibly colourful (thanks to its South Indian influence) - and these are just a few of the things I loved about it. It is actually the oldest temple in Colombo, dating back 200 years. One temple is dedicated to the god Ganesha and the other to god Shiva. Photos are not allowed inside, but it is full of masterfully crafted sculptures. A feast for the eyes, both inside the temple and out. Follow @thatgoangirl for more things to do in Colombo

This will be a wonderful experience if you are visiting a Hindu temple for the first time. The temple is spacious, beautifully designed, colorful and has places of honor for several deities. Pleasant atmosphere, although located in the heart of the city, it is cut off from the surrounding world (located between train lines). Dress appropriately for the temple, take off your shoes and bring flowers if possible.

Tamil temples have fascinating architecture- those tall Gopuram’s have years of history. And lord shiva has been generous that I could have his darshan. If you are shiv bhakt & in Colombo do visit this temple. There are other deities as well in temple - I couldn’t take my eyes off at Radha Krishna idol. Couldn’t take photos of the antique idols .

Discovered by accident as it didn't appear on Google's suggestion or until your really zoomed in on it's location, a hidden gem we discovered when we were photographing the lotus tower being built. Truly beautiful place, amazing art and very warm and beautiful people. Should be a must if you're visiting temple in colombo.

There are a lot of colorful paintings inside this temple. A lot of scenes with small details. If you’re interested in Hindu religion and culture this temple is must visit place in Colombo. We’ve got into curios situation with my wife, and got to be accidentally closed inside empty temple.
