The Buddha statue depicting sleeping posture situated in this temple is the oldest Buddha statue in Sri Lanka(Pidurangala is the first Buddha statue). There are five Buddha statues in Eastern province. But this Buddha statue has a special significance. That is though all other statues are facing either northern or western direction the Tharulengala statue faces eastern direction.Thus when sun rises the light beams of the sun falls directly on the face of the Buddha statue. Apart from the statue it has been revealed that this temple consists of paintings from prehistoric era. Many rock caves are situated in Tharulengala temple. The longest cave (720 ft)in south Asia is among them. Other than these caves 3 pillars which has ancient letters have been found.

Udarata Menike-01 උඩරට මැණිකේ, Hill Country Maiden

GREAT RAILWAY JOURNEYS OF THE SRI LANKA The railway line from Colombo to Badulla is a spectacular railway line which, over a distance of 180 miles(290km), ascends from sea level to 6500 feet and then descends in to the Uva valley (or Uva Basin as it is usually called) to terminate at Badulla at 2000 feet. The railway was built by the British in the latter part of the 19th century primarily for freight.(Guage: 5ft6in, 1676mm) Since then very little has been changed. The gradients are steep and the tight curves prevent the use of modern rolling stock. Because of the rugged terrain earthslips are common. There are 46 tunnels on this line and one complete spiral (at Demodera). There are only two trains in any one direction each day which run the whole distance.The Udarata Menike takes at least 9 hours to do the journey (on a good day!) !
