Located on a hilltop. Available by car. 13 km from Kandy. Mixed culture of Sinhalese (mostly) and Hinduism. Built by King Zhou Lama Bahu. If interested in Buddhism and culture, this is an ideal place. Pants and long sleeve tops should be worn. We have visited so many temples and this one is different from ordinary. We feel it should not be found by most tourists, but locals come often. It is being renovated and there are scaffolding, but in the small details, it is still impressive, the painting inside is really amazing. Not only that, the two or three buildings outside are also very interesting, and again, the painting is amazing. It was a super fun place and we would love to go again if we had the chance. The interaction with the kids outside was also very good and fun.

The monastery is more than ten kilometers away from Kandy and needs to be chartered. The area is small and worships the gods of Buddhism and Hinduism. There are exquisite murals in the main temple, beautiful sculptures on the exterior walls, and the three white towers next to it are very distinctive. Tickets are currently free.
加达拉德尼亚寺院(Gadaladeniya Raja Maha Vihara), 这是康堤市内的一处佛教圣地,这里有三座佛教寺庙组成,院内有许多石雕佛像和金属佛像 。非常安静的寺院,里面有很多当地人在参观。
虽然经过修复但是曾经的殖民者带来的破坏还是显而易见的这座庙有六百多年的历史。现在虽然看着破败但是在当地人心中历史地位还是很高的人不多但是天天有人。
很棒的一个寺庙,寺庙很清静,人不是很多,整个庙修得特别精致典雅,便是庙里打扫得非常干净。院子里还种了不少的植物,很好看。
