Kataragama Temple is situated in southern part of Sri Lanka and temple area is very big. People worship Lord Murga and Ganesa and there is no statue of deities in this temple. We had dharsan at the time deepa aradhani (7 pm) in the night and more than 1000 people participated in the function. People are coming to the temple with "Kavadi" and performing other religious rituals. Outside the temple, more open space is there. People believe that this God is more powerful and visit this temple atleast once in a year.
