Sambodhi Chaithya Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Located in the northwest corner of the fortress area. The shape of the stupa is peculiar. Climb up the 11-storey stairs next to the stupa and enjoy the full view of Colombo's harbour. The exquisite Buddhist murals and high domes in the tower are very beautiful.

Nice
Nice location to see the port of colombo. It is better to have a visit on morning and evening. Binocular would be ideal.
temple on stilts
You have to climb several flights of stairs to go inside this temple. Enjoy the views of the city while you do so.
