The pure white tower is so spectacular, it is a pure beauty when you look far away, but when you approach, the solemn and sacred look is awe-inspiring

pan***he
Sri Lanka's oldest Shelita, Thhuparamaya, is also the first Buddhist building built in the 3rd century BC. Unlike the Great White Tower I have visited before, there are many stone pillars around, some are obviously tilted, so that the white pagoda under the blue sky adds a lot of vicissitudes.

pan***he
The brass palace in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka, cannot enter, the door is closed, but it does not prevent it from looking outside. (Dogs are casually in and out), you can see the spectacular columns through the fence, which are quite high, but not thick. It is said that there are 1600. I don't know if anyone has really counted them. But the bronze hall looked small and slightly weaker.

pan***he
Polonnaruwa is a world heritage site, especially the Royal Palace. Among them, Vatadage, really amazing, is actually an ancient building complex, of which Vatadage (ring stone house, also known as quadrangle courtyard or round Buddha house), the sculpting of the stalwart and the moonstone are very exquisite, the moonstone here is different from Anuradhapura, where different animals cross in the same circle, This is a circle of animals, and we laymen can only see these shallow differences. The guardstone is separated on both sides of the steps to defend the Buddha statue.

旅の径
The ancient city of Galle, located on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka, covers an area of 360,000 square meters. It is a must-check ancient city in Sri Lanka. Walking on the thick embankment, the slight sea breeze is light... cozy; shuttled in the streets and alleys, the strong style hits the face...comfortable

渭南松赞干布
Satmahar Prasada (Sathmahal Prasada), meaning "seven-story temple", is located in the quadrangle courtyard, next to the stone book, its shape like a ladder pyramid, now only 6-story structure, built during the reign of King Poromobo I. Its structure is rather strange, and there is no similar building elsewhere, widely regarded as a pagoda.

渭南松赞干布
The library is located at the southernmost end of the ancient city of Polonnaruva, adjacent to the statue of Poloromobocho I. It is a wall thick and hollow, similar to the building of Shelita, which is considered to be a Tibetan pavilion for the storage of holy books. It is actually a circular temple, with four smaller solid round towers at four corners around the central dome, forming a rectangular Sinhalese plum five-point arrangement.
