Pethanmalu Rajamaha Viharaya (පෙතන්මළු රජමහා විහාරය)
Pethanmalu Raja Maha Vihara, originally built during the Anuradhapura era, underwent renovations during the Kandyan period after a period of decline. As a result, the temple features architectural elements from both eras. Stone pillars, flights of steps, guard stones, sculpted stones, pedestals, and moonstones are among the distinctive features of Anuradhapura era.
