Aramanapola Raja Maha Vihara, Buddhist temple in Ganegama, Sri Lanka.
The temple complex contains a two-story image house with 27 rock pillars, traditional stone carvings, and ancient wall paintings from the Kotte period.
The temple's origins date to King Devanampiya Tissa's reign, when one of the 32 saplings from the sacred Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi tree was planted at this location.
The temple maintains its status as a spiritual center where Buddhist ceremonies continue, connecting the local community through religious practices and traditions.
Located 20 kilometers from Ratnapura town along the Ratnapura-Haputhale road, the temple welcomes visitors who wish to explore its archaeological structures.
The site houses what experts recognize as the largest Bodhi tree among similar sacred trees in Sri Lanka, planted from an original Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi sapling.
