Vistas of the breathtaking splendor of the pink quartz mountain range is a unique experience. There is no presence of common black rock in the entire area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Although, quartz crystals are common in many parts of the world, this deposit is renowned as the largest rose quartz deposit in Asia. Hence, mining the crystals in the location is illegal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">The color and the hue of the crystals vary from a pale pink to a much deeper and richer tone. Yet, the surface of the mountain range is more of a dusty gray and according to geologists, the crystal range is of a deep hue, a few feet underneath the top layer. According to geologists, \u201cthe discolorations are natural, given the minerals\u2019 exposure to direct sunlight, rains and other elements\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Although, the mountain range is huge, it is easy to hike it. Surrounded by trees, there are many lakes in the region with breathtaking vistas as far as the eye can see&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">According to legends, these ironwood trees have been planted under the guidance of Sinhalese Kings who reigned in *Ceylon from the era of *King Devanampiyatissa in the 8th Century AD up to King Dappula IV\u2019s era (reign 939 &#8211; 940). According to legends, the forest has served as a sanctuary for criminals. Although, they had been untouchable by law when they sought refuge there, their penalty had been to plant ironwood trees during their stay in the forest. Hence, the trees that are in existence at present are over 2000 years, an enormous virginal forest. The protected area of the Ironwood Forest covers approximately 1011 hectares (2500 acres) and is under the purview of the Department of Wildlife Conservation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Namal Uyana had also been a sanctuary for Buddhist monks during King Devanampiyatissa\u2019s reign in the 8th century. This unique Ironwood Forest and the rose quartz mountain range received global recognition due to a Buddhist monk, Venerable Wanawasi Rahula Thero when the location was accidentally discovered by the Thero, the Chief Incumbent of the Namal Uyana, in 1991.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">In addition to ironwood trees, there are over 100 species of tropical plants, including 82 herbal species.
