The pass separating the Kandy and Kegalle valleys is known by the name Kadugannawa. For invaders traveling from Colombo, this pass has historically served as their primary route into Kandy. There were several battles going on in the area. When foreign forces were able to take control of Kandy, the Sinhalese were successful in launching a guerilla campaign against the supply route that ran along Kadugannawa. The first foreign nation to have a permanent presence in Kandy was the British. They built a road between Kandy and Colombo to ensure access.
