These hot springs flowed into a  natural water hole constructed from stone tanks and basins. Here, the hot water  bubbles into the ponds and mixes with water. Warm water flows smoothly into the  surrounding basins where visitors can enjoy the soothing water. These are  located near the famous Buddhist hermitage at Madunagala.
