Overview
Situated on Kotte Road, the Ancient Temple was developed during Kotte period, beginning in the 5th Century and ending in the 6th Century.
The abandoned Kingdom was swallowed by thick jungle and later rediscovered in 1813 by Ven. Pilane Buddha Rakkitha Nayake Thero who discovered the ruins of the present Kotte Raja Maha Viharaya.
From this day the temple rose from its ashes like a phoenix. The temple is presently the headquarters of the Kotte Sri Kalyani Samagri Dharma Maha Sangha Sabha, where the annual ordination of Bhikkhus takes place in the famous Poya Ge.
