The Holy Rocks:



These are two rocks associated with a legend of the Hindu temple of Sri Nagapooshani Amman on the island of Nainativu. In Tamil they are called "Paambu Sutriya Kallu" (the rock on which the snake wound itself) and Karudan Kallu (the rock of the sea eagle). Devotees go to the rocks on small boats or catamarons and worship these rocks.
