Sri Lanka Day 2: Polonnaruwa (Gal Vihara)


It was close to evening time when we arrived at Gal Vihara, another highlight of Polonnaruwa.  We walked passed a beautiful lotus pond to the site.











There were 4 statues at the site, and they were cut from one long slab of granite.  Picture at the right only showed 3 of them.  You could imagine how large a scale it is.











The statues were preserved very well.

With this, we ended our wonderful visit to Polonnaruwa.
