Important
archeological
site
with
many
historic
buildings.
However,
incumbents
are
interested
on
building
new
structures
rather
than
restoring
old.
The
varanda
in
the
one
of
the
image
house
was
littered
with
dog
poo
coz
temple
gotta
Dalmation
as
a
pet
π.
Main
living
quarter
of
the
monks
and
relic
chamber
are
painted
with
gold
paint
which
is
horrible.
I
do
not
know
how
people
are
not
sensitive
for
these
things.
Furthermore,
white
paint
is
stocked
at
both
old
image
house
and
pirith
hall
ignoring
their
histiric
significance.
White
washing
of
them
done
carelessly
where
paint
marks
run
across
old
painted
lettering.
Apart
from
negative
comments,
wall
murals
at
the
image
house
are
must
to
see.
They
are
beautiful
examples
of
sourthern
style
of
temple
paintings.
Pirith
hall
or
the
chanting
hall
gotta
permanent
chanting
ensemble
made
out
of
wood
which
is
further
decorated
and
painted.
Ginger
beer
bottle
at
middle,
may
have
used
for
containing
water,
for
chanting.
If
u
are
arrive
there
on
a
mid
week,
make
sure
u
request,
to
open
them
for
u,
coz
they
are
always
locked.
Last
but
not
least,
wooden
flower
altar
and
ceramic
mosaic
work
on
the
floor
are
out
of
this
world.
Happy
sight
seeing
guys!!
