Galapatha Raja Maha Viharaya – Ancient Buddhist Temple

Begin your cultural journey at this sacred temple, which dates back centuries and is linked to the era of King Saddhatissa. It features stone inscriptions, traditional paintings, a sacred Bo tree, and an atmosphere of quiet devotion. Your guide will explain the temple’s historical and spiritual importance.
