Kuliyapitiya Historical Place

 


Yakarawatta Purana Siddha Pattini Tampita Devalaya is one of the oldest and respected Pattini Devalaya in the Kurunegala District. This devalaya lies at the Yakarawatta village in the Kuliyapitiya West PS division.



According to legend, Yakarawatta Devalaya is over 500 years old. When a cluster of villages around Yakarawatta was experiencing frequent infectious diseases and difficulties in raising children, a group of villagers had gone to the Nawagamuwa Pattini Devalaya and had received a golden anklet of Pattini and a golden mango. They had brought these two relics and kept them on a Kebella tree log at this location and performed the necessary rituals.
