Among the remnants of Gampola era, the most famous temples are Lankathilaka, Gadaladeniya and Embekka Devalaya. The ancient stone scripts (Shila Lekhana) of Lankathilaka temple helps to reveal a considerable amount of vital information regarding the Gampola era. The statue of Buddha of the temple indicates style of South Indian arts. The Ambekka Dewalaya possess a large collection of wood carvings, where no other temple in Sri Lanka owns such a collection.
The town is located amongst Sri Lanka's central highlands, hence the climate stays mild throughout the year.

A notable feature of this complex is a large winding tower resembling a Buddhist stupa, which is located on the mountain peak. Gampola town has a lot of shops and a huge residential area.
