Rangiri Dambulla Resort has the privilege of setting up a well planned herb garden within the resort under the name “Deegayu Herb Garden” where we have planted more than 350 species of rare and important traditional herbal plants of high medicinal values. Gradually, we are increasing this number by planting more rare species.

The main purpose of establishing the herb garden is to impart some knowledge to our guests on valuable herbal plants grown and used in Sri Lanka for 3000 years old Ayurvedic Treatment system and their medicinal values in treatment for various ailments. The herb garden also serves a road map for the guests to have some awareness on how to establish a small home garden with herbal plants.

First uniqueness of our herb garden is the display of botanical names and their medicinal values in front of each plant. Second uniqueness is the “Raw Herb Display” unit where we display more than 70 different varieties of raw herbs and herbal powders. A booklet on medicinal values and plant details of these raw herbs are available in the garden itself for reference. Third uniqueness is the display of ancient utensils which are more than 120 years old and used to make herbal medicines and oils. There is a small Herbalism Library where you can read herbal medicine books while relaxing on a swinging bed.
