When visiting Sri Lanka, you absolutely must stop by this temple, which is home to the tallest walking figure of Sri Buddha in the entire world.

It is situated in a serene area that is entirely covered by forests. There are stairs built to go to the top, where you can observe the statue of Sri Buddha and other historical events portrayed in the shape of statues. Before entering the temple, you must take off your sandals, and there is a place for them to be stored. Women should be covering their elbow and knee while there.

Loved this place. A temple with ample details on Buddhist culture and history. The set up is really beautiful and is in contact with nature. Very valuable trees too could be found near each Buddha in each era. Really beautiful and different from most of the temples around.

Very attractive Buddhist Viharaya near Kandy. About 30 minutes ride from Kandy city. Parking and general facilities available. Easy climb to the top of the mountain where you can see a fascinating Buddha's statue and a panoramic view of the surrounding area. Along the climbing steps you can enjoy the sculptures depicting iconic events of Buddhist history. Highly recommend to any tourist.

A Buddhist temple in Kandy-Pilimathalawa, Sri Lanka which is a very calm and quiet place. Has a nice surrounding and a nice view.

The most beautiful temple I've ever visited in sri lanka. Sorrounding was so amazing and there are lot to see inside the temple. You should visit this temple. But the condition of the road to the temple is poor. Its just 1 km but two vehicles cannot pass through the road at once. I appreciate if anyone can reconstruct the road.

It's a beautiful place to visit. Not only you can see the highest walking Buddha statue but also the some arts around the path. The interest thing is there's a well planned path for entrance and for exit. So there will be no mess while climbing the steps.

Famous bhuddist temple situated at peradeniya. It is situated on a hill, have to climb about 500-600 steps to reach to the top. On the top of it there is world's tallest walking lord Buddha's statue. There are so many statues related to buddhism on the way to the top.

Very beautiful and attractive buddhist temple situated about 30min drive from kandy. It is getting more famous among local and forieng travellers. It is a good place to bring your kids. The tallest walking buddha's statue located in the top of the mountain.

Wolds tallest walking Buddha statue can be seen here among other sculptures which are related to Buddhism and great journey of Buddha. There are two roads to Temple along Colombo Kandy road. Most famous is Ranawana temple Rd by the railway crossing. However this Rd is congested n better to take road from Kiribathkumbura junction on busy days like poya days.

Ranawana Purana Raja Maha Viharaya is situated in Yatinuwara, Pilimathalawa. It is one of the most beautiful temples in Sri Lanka and is tightly bound with nature. Apart from the usual characteristics of a temple, this temple has a trail in to the forest. ❤
