Rankoth Vehera in Kingdom of Polonnaruwa Sri Lanka #252931798
Description
Rankoth Vehera is a stupa located in the ancient city of Polonnaruwa in Sri Lanka. The stupa was built by Nissanka Malla. The Rankoth Vehera has been built according to the tradition of the stupas of the Anuradhapura Maha Viharaya and bears a close resemblance to Ruwanwelisaya. Thus, the name Rankoth Vehera can be roughly translated to English as Gold Pinnacled Stupa.[4] Along with the Kiri Vehera, it is one of the most revered stupas in Polonnaruwa.
