Gangaramaya Temple

important Buddhist temple in Colombo with a wild mix of styles

a green oasis in middle of a bustling city and business district

a series of temples and shrines within the royal city Polonnaruwa

ancient capital of the Sri Lankan kingdom with many ruins and relics

very old Buddhist temple complex built under an overhanging rock

passing by a full church on my way around Sri Lanka

former royal palace and old capital of the Kingdom of Sri Lanka

getting a Buddhist string for protection and good luck

visiting the southernmost point of Sri Lanka, first stop of my road trip

colorful banners with Buddhist blessings, mostly used in the Himalayas
