Kotte had three resting posts, of which only the Gal Ambalama (made of granite) remains. Two others were Meti Ambalama (made of mud), one near the palace and another near Rajagiriya, which were lost in the mid-20th century. Gal Ambalama was destroyed during the wars between the Portuguese and Sītāvaka Rājasiṁha but was restored during the British period using old granite pillars. The well that was there is also now lost. Recent discoveries of some openings suggest it might also have served as an air outlet for the tunnel running across the previous site visited at Ananda Sastralaya.
