This revised illustrated second edition explores the sacred Rangiri Dambulu Viharaya, one of Sri Lanka's most venerated Buddhist temples. Originally published in 1983 by the UNESCO-Sri Lanka Cultural Triangle Project, the work has been updated to reflect contemporary scholarship and enhanced with detailed illustrations. Emeritus Professor Anuradha Seneviratna brings historical depth and cultural insight to this comprehensive study of the Golden Rock Temple's architecture, art, and religious significance.
