Udugampola

Udugampola is a small town in the Gampaha District of Sri Lanka and was a sub kingdom during reign of the King Sakala Kala Wallabha of Kotte Era.

According to the historical sources such as the Rajaveliya, Udugampola had been the sub kingdom of a provincial king or viceroy, Sakalakala Wallabha, the son of Veera Parakramabahu VIII of Kotte.

[4] The large pond called Pathaha Pokuna adjoining the Uththararama temple has been identified as the bathing pool of the king.

It bears no date but purports a grant made by king Vijayabhahu of Udugampola in Alutkuru korale.

The Sannasa records a donation made to a Brahmin by the king at a royal assembly held in his new palace at Udugampola on new moon day of Poson (18 June 1517) when a full solar eclipse was sighted.
