Hirigal Cave, located in Pallebedde Waulpane Village, belonging to Ratnapura Ambilipitiya Kolonna Regional Council, has a unique location, consists of ten sub-caves and is said to be a cave system that is 500 million years old. In the deep darkness, the caves are home to Sri Lanka's largest underground waterfall, as well as thousands of bats, rats, and cockroaches. Also you can see Hiri Tamba and Hiri Lambda which are created from continuously growing Hiri stones.

It is also said that there are animal and plant fossils that are millions of years old. Out of the thousands of bats that live in the cave, 07 species are said to be endemic to Sri Lanka. Manavi. Bats can also be snakes that come to prey on rats, so attention should be paid to that.
