Ritigala Ruins

This place, on a hill of forest and creeks, and built as early as 4th century BC, has quite lot stone foundations. Those structures are connected with stone slab paved trail. Most famous is the urinal stone. Its secular function is obvious but its religious significance left to wild guess.
