Kaluthara Temple

Kaluthara Temple - Kaluthara ~

One of the first things you’ll discover about this temple is that it is one of the few hollow Buddhist stupas in the world. Visitors from all over the world come to experience its calmness and observe the 74 beautiful murals that adorn its interiors.

Take in all the peace that radiates from the four smaller stupas and the murals of Jataka tales inside the bigger stupa. The premises also house a tree that used to be one of the 32 saplings of the sacred Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi.

A visit to this temple is a must if you want to learn more about Buddhism and its history in the country.
