    Best place to see wooden carved “Buddha Status” in various “Mudras” (hand gestures and seating postures) in Sri Lanka is Sri Vijayarama Purana Viharaya (Temple) in Kaluwadumulla, Ambalangoda which is just 1 km away from Colombo-Galle (A2) Road. Also Image house contains traditional wooden designs of door frames & windows. This wooden designs show the skill of persons of traditional wood carving industry in Sri Lanka.

    One of the calmest place in Ambalangoda. There are set of wooden buddha statues depicting several rare mudras. And there are beautiful terracotta paintings as well. The bho tree is covered by a bowl type wall something special than the traditional wall. It has no gate allowing anyone to enter the temple at anytime and no "pinkata".
