The Ganggalama Temple in Colombo is displayed in various bodhisattvas, some smiling, some kind and kind, giving you warmth and calm. People come in and out, there are weddings, and Buddhism is a Sri Lankan lifestyle.

This serene temple sits on three floating platforms which are connected to each other and to the mainland by floating bridges. There are numerous seated Buddha statues displaying different mudras (hand gestures) on all three platforms. The central platform houses wooden paneled temple for meditation. The view of the surrounding Colombo skyline from the central platform is beautiful. A small entrance fee to the temple applies to foreigners.

Although we didn’t get inside, from the outside it was an amazing Indian temple in central Colombo, and the carving was fantastic. It seemed like an ordinary residential area, but then we saw the temple. Awesome!! A corner of an incredible building. Be sure to take time to visit. We came here by tutu car from Cinnamom Lakeside Hotel, which is only 5 minutes away from the hotel and is well worth a visit.

An elegant building, built entirely in marble, located opposite the Holy Land of St. Anthony in Kotahena. Area. This is a late 18th century building seen in the name of the Shivan god. Luxurious ornate gatehouse, very beautifully done, with fine design and sculpture. You need slippers when you enter the temple ground. If you are visiting here, be careful with your skirt. On some special festivals, it is very busy.

Asokaramaya is a Buddhist temple in the south of Colombo city. Asoka is both a tree name and a temple that was built to commemorate the Ayuth sent his son to Sri Lanka to promote the Buddha's law. The Bodhi tree brought from Bodhigaya has long grown into a towering ancient tree with many branches. . There are Buddhist footprints, beautiful murals and Buddha statues in the temple, and the style is unique. (Repaired after the damage, the decorative murals on the top of the ring are new) Please take off your shoes and hats when you enter the tour, and shooting is not prohibited inside. I met the white-clad administrator grandfather, specially opened the cabin around the porch to introduce me to the story of Buddha statues and sculptures, thank you Google Maps for accurate positioning, you can navigate to
