British author, John Still [In, The Jungle Tide 'A Holy Mountain']: "Adam's Peak must be one of the vastest and most widely revered cathedrals of the human race." He continues, "In the middle of the hills of Ceylon, now sacred to tea, there towers a mountain so famous, that the literature of two thousand years in several languages would have to be searched if all references to it were to be assembled in one book. Hindus, Buddhists, Mohamadens, and Christians alike revere the mountain as a holy place.
