    built with 500 life size statues of bhikkus following the Buddha. The statues each different to one another, represent Buddha and 500 followers traveling across cities to share the  Buddhist philosophy. Although this temple has no historical value, due to it has become a popular destination for pilgrims to Anuradhapura and pilgrims to Thantirimale Rajamaha Viharaya.
