Isipathanaramaya, Colombo 5.



I am fortunate in having two special neighbourhood Buddhist temples; Asokaramaya and Isipathanaramaya. On Sunday I went back to the latter to after a gap of many years.
It was fun trying to replicate pictures I first took years ago but this time using a new camera that I am still trying out. The temple is well worth a visit for its collection of fine paintings that date from the 1920's CERNO, any thoughts on who the artist might have been?
