Nestled in the hills near Ella, this cave is named after the mythical king Ravana from the ancient Indian epic, the Ramayana. According to local lore, Ravana used this cave as a hideout during his reign. The cave itself is quite impressive, featuring large rock formations and an expansive interior that sparks the imagination.
