Könnte das der Berg sein?

Flood Plains National Park?

Das ist richtig. Der Name vom Berg ist identisch mit dem Namen vom Ort unterhalb.

Wie lautet daher dessen Name?

Tipp: D - nicht Deutschland sondern ...

Den Platz habe ich jetzt gefunden. Der Berg liegt zwischen der B 502 und AB 44

Es gibt einen Ort, der Dimbulagala heisst. Ist das auch der Name des Berges?

Kithalagama Sri Seelalankara Thera

Matara Kithalagama Sri Seelalankara Thera (also known as Dimbulagala Hamuduruwo) was a Sri Lankan Buddhist monk who lived in the 20th century in Sri Lanka. He was the pioneer in restoring the ancient Buddhist monastery Dimbulagala Raja Maha Vihara in the 1950s and was the chief incumbent of the monastery for around four decades. He lived a modest life and spent his life for the development of the ancient monastery and for the upliftment of the poor peasants who lived in the surrounding areas of the Polonnaruwa District in North Central Province.

On May 26, 1995 Kithalagama Sri Seelalankara Nayaka Thera, popularly known as Dimbulagala Hamuduruwo was killed by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) when he was on his way to visit a farm belonging to the temple. He provided moral support to the poor people living in border villages to fight LTTE intrusions into their villages. He was the chief Sanghanayaka of the Northern and Eastern provinces and Tamankaduva area at the time of his death. Sri Lanka Post issued a postage stamp on 21 July 2005, to commemorate his valuable service to the nation.

Die Gegend stand schon lange auf meiner to do Liste. Leider war ich noch nicht am bzw. auf dem Berg. Eventuell bin ich 2020 endlich dort.
