Japanese Peace Pagoda
West of the clock tower and bus station, DS Senanayake Rd leads towards Inginyagala, passing scenic Ampara Tank. After about 2km a short right turn brings you to the graceful Japanese Peace Pagoda. The pagoda itself is large rather than beautiful, and despite still being a spring chicken in pagoda years it’s starting to look a little tatty.

The central Buddhist Mandala Mahavihara has a large pagoda. Its interior is somewhat tackily painted with Buddhist scenes and a cloud-dotted ‘sky’.
