" She reads books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live. " - Annie Dillard That's something you would say if you know me. Yeah I read. Alot. I don't honestly remember when I started reading.. But I can clearly remember Radiant way English book that I used to read in Nursery. I literally read everything which has letters printed/written in and my mom thought it's a good idea to get me the membership of local library. By the second grade I finished reading all the books in the library and wanted more. So mom bought me books.. It was a habit of us to visit the local bookstore at least once a month. Soon books started piling up but was that enough for me? NO... I wanted more.. and more books. As a result of collecting books for about 18 years I have a huge library in my house and also proud to say that I won the 4th place of an all island library competition when I was in seventh grade.

It's the year end vacation and everybody is busy travelling. So today I thought of writing about an interesting place to visit near Dambulla. Even though it's not far away from popular tourist destinations most people are not aware about Menikdena. The name Menikdena is associated with a legend which says that the ashes of the arahath maliyadeva thero was buried in a casket decorated with gems. The ancient name for this place is Buddagama and the king " Kithsirimewan" built the mountain monastery according to legends. It also served as a military base for King Vijayabahu I and king Parakramabahu I.
