The Sri Lankan Monastery is a Theravada Buddhist establishment dedicated to Sri Lanka. It is a striking monastery nestled in the East Monastic Zone of Lumbini which has a spherical raised platform with a traditional Pagoda on top. Underneath the Pagoda, is a beautiful golden idol of Lord Buddha seen seated in a meditating posture. This arrangement has a pathway that encircles the structure and provides an area for circumambulation. The site is extremely well maintained and peaceful enough to allow tourists to sit a moment in solitude.
