It is located on Daulagala road approximately 4 km (2.5 mi) away from Pilimatalawajunction and a few kilometres from the ancient buddhist temple, Gadaladeniya Vihara. It is considered as the most magnificent architectural edifice created during the Gampola era. The history of the temple goes back to the 14th century. According to historical reports this temple was built by King Bhuvanekabahu IV, who reigned from 1341 to 1351 A. D. He entrusted the construction of this temple to his Chief Minister named Senalankadhikara, who successfully finished the works of this temple. The architecture of the temple was designed by a South Indian architect named Sathapati Rayar.

  One of the ancient temples in Kandy, calm and quiet place, you may need to visit the place in early mornings or late evening since the rock ground might get warmer due to the sun's heat

  Another marvelous creations of past Sri Lankan who lived in Kandy era. This temple was built by King Bhuvanekabahu IV, who reigned from 1341 to 1351 A. D. Mainly a masonry structure initially built to four storied building, however, only three stories are visible now. This is built over a big rock an the best time is before 11 am and then you can enjoy the place easily and with a calm and nice climate.
