Neelagiri Maha Seya
Neelagiri Maha Seya is the largest Buddhist Stupa in the Eastern Province.
The stupa, located in the
Lahugala Forest Reserve
has been neglected
for over 30 years due to the LTTE Terrorist activities in the area. The
stupa is said to be build by King Kawantissa (3rd Centaury BC). The
Archeological Department has taken steps to conserve this stupa in 2011.
