Adam's Peak

Adam's Peak, also known as Sri Pada, is a sacred mountain in Sri Lanka famous for its footprint-shaped rock formation near the summit. This footprint is revered by multiple faiths—Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, and Christians—who see it as a holy relic of spiritual significance. Every year, thousands of pilgrims trek to the top, often during the pilgrimage season from dusk to dawn, to experience the spiritual journey and admire panoramic views. The mountain’s cultural importance, combined with its natural beauty and the challenge of the climb, makes Adam's Peak a notable pilgrimage and tourist destination.
