What to see....

The Stupa itself is an amazing sight. There is a popular saying that the Stupa is so large that if you beat drums on one side of it, people on the other side cannot hear the drums.

Almost all great Sinhala kings made contributions to the great Stupa. As a result the Stupa area is rich with things to see
