Waliyakuma is held only once a year. You can only see this peaceful ritual in Kandy and it is not held in other villages. Here, you can see several special decorations as well as special rituals and dances. Meanwhile, we can see a 'Solosmagala','sivili walan' and 'gavaramala'.They can be shown through the following images.
