Visit Adam's Peak from Colombo

Adam’s peak is 2243 m high, and it’s a tall conical mountain located in central Visit Adams peak Sri Lanka, 7 kilometers away from the Dalhousie village. The climb consists of rising stairs, and you have to climb 5,000 (wow!) of them in order to reach the peak.

The top of the mountain has a huge “footprint”-like hollow. The Buddhist residents say it’s the footprint of Buddha’s left foot. The Hindus claimed that the footprint belonged to Lord Shiva. The Muslims and the Christians believed that it was Adam’s first step after being kicked out of the Garden of Eden by God.
