エタガラ エタガラ エタガラ

アスガラはエタガラとも呼ばれ、スリランカのクルネーガラの町を見下ろす非常に素晴らしい岩です。アスガラはクルネーガラの町からわずか1kmほどのところにあります。この岩は象の形をしていることから「アスガラ」と呼ばれています。これはクルネーガラの「象徴的な」ランドマークです。岩の頂上に到達するには 2 つの方法を選択できます。岩の階段をたどるか、車に乗って頂上まで登ります。岩の頂上まで歩くと15~20分ほどかかりますが、周りを眺めていると忘れてしまいます。時々、岩の真ん中で数匹の猿の群れを見つけることができます。したがって、持ち物には常に気を付けたほうが良いでしょう。

岩の頂上に到達すると、寺院 (Athugala Viharaya) と巨大な真っ白な仏像が見えました。この寺院には、高さ 88 フィートの巨大な仏像が安置されています。大きな裸岩の山は、仏像を安置するのに最適な環境です。クルネーガラの町から眺める大仏の夜景はまさに息を呑む美しさです。周囲が真っ暗な中、真っ白な仏像だけが空に浮かび上がります。まるで仏像が空に浮かんでいるかのような雰囲気です。訪れる価値のある景色であり、これらの景色はこの場所を思い出に残るものにします。

完璧な景色を望むなら、夕方から岩を登り始める必要があります。少し暗くなるまで岩の頂上に留まります。岩の頂上から見るクルナゲラ市の眺めはパノラマで、目を楽しませてくれます。忙しいクルネーガラの町を通過するなら、アスガラは必見の場所です。また、クルネーガラを訪れたと言いたいなら、アスガラに登る必要があります。
