It is situated on the 245/1 Nittambuwa - Katunayake / Airport bus route between Veyangoda and Minuwangoda. The major landuses in the area are rubber, coconut, MHG, rice and pineapples.[2] Dewalapola is the home of Sri Sudarshanarama Purana Viharaya,[3] Minu / Ananda Maha Vidyalaya (AMV), a public library, a post office[4] and an Ayurvedic Center of the Department Of Ayurveda, Ministry Of Indigenous Medicine.[5] EtymologyThe name Dewalapola is a compound formed of Dewele (of two times) and Pola (place) which means a place that used twice (a day). Accordance with the historical scripts found in Sri Lanka, for example Mahawamsa and Rajavaliya,[6] Udugampola Rajadhaniya (the Kingdom of Udugampola) was being ruled by King Sakalakala Wallabha[7] when his elder half brother, Buwanakabahu, owned the throne under the name of Dharma Parakramabahu IX(1508 AD - 1528 AD) of the Kingdom of Kotte succeeding his father King Veera Parakramabahu.[8] King Sakalakala Wallabha with one of his Raja Shilpis, named Balasuriya Kankanama, the devoted superintendent of irrigation of the kingdom,[9] used to take rest for refreshments at Dewalapola twice a day on his way to and from the construction site of Mabodale wewa.[10] DemographicPopulation by Age
