Doramadalawa Temple

Ancient temple. The Doramadalawa cave is one of the many places claiming to have been the hideout of Prince Pandukabhaya (474 BC – 367 BC), when his uncles tried to trace him down. There is a recess in the rock just above the main entrance. Pandukahbaya is said to have placed a large gem in this niche. It was so big that is reflected the moon light, enabling the prince's weapons training in front of the cave during nighttime. Inside the cave, there is a small closed door. Locals believe there is a tunnel behind it once allowing Pandukabhaya to flee at any time

Abhayagiri stupa belongs to the aramic complex of Abhayagiriya Viharaya which was constructed in the reign of King Vattagamini Abaya (commonly known as King Valagamba) in the 1st Century BC.

According to the 5th century traveler Chinese monk Fa-Hsien’s descriptions, this stupa has been 400 feet (122 meters) in height and has been decorated with gold and silver and studded with all kinds of jewels. There also has been a 20 foot (6.1 meters) high Buddha statue made out of green jade.

자야 스리 마하 보디

This tree was brought to the Island during the reign of the Great King Devanampiyathissa, three centuries before the dawn of the Common Era from Bodhgaya in Central India, by the famous Buddhist nun, Theree Sanghamitta, the only daughter of Emperor Dharmasoka. It was named the ‘bodhi’ tree because Prince Siddhartha attained Enlightenment (sambodhi) in its shade. This original tree at Bodhgaya is no more and as a result the tree at Anuradhapura becomes the oldest documented historic tree in the world. Saplings of this tree were sent to different parts of the island, and Buddhists believe that all the bodhi trees in the island today have their genetic links with this tree.
