-
Situated at the front of a calm fresh water tank , Kirindwita Buddhist temple is one of the most environmental friendly monasteries situated in approximately 3 Km away from Gampaha city known as the second capital of Sri Lanka ,where you can relax your rest your tired souls & bodies. This temple is filled with carefully planned & planted flora & fauna. It has many trees that yields flowers & many trees that yields fruits throughout the year. This place offers programs in Buddhist teachings, meditation advises & life advises too. On every poya day hundreds of people attend preachings of Lord Buddha's teachings preached by highly respected Buddhist monks in the island & meals + refreshments are offered free to those who attend. You can get books on Buddhism in both Sinhala & English languages & can get your doubts cleared on anything on those, with discussing the monks who are there. Since this is a beautiful landscape filled with fruits & flowers various types of birds & other animals can be seen all day along. Though the architecture of most of the Buddhist temples in Sri Lanka are inspired by south Asian architectural models this one of the few temples which is influenced by south eastern Asian architecture. I welcome you all to experience the stillness of a beautiful Buddhist temple & gain peace to yourselves...
