I searched for interesting places to see before I went to Jaffna and came across this place online. I was immediately intrigued. Used Google maps to locate the place when we drove over there. Found it easily. The site is beautiful and peaceful. Visitors are not allowed to walk in and stroll among the domes but can view it from outside. The inscription at the site states that the monks ate poisoned food and this is their burial place. I wish I cold go again and spend some time here.... it was so peaceful and fascinating to see the domes of varying sizes scattered in this open area. One guy at the site was telling us a long story that they did not have money to maintain the place which I thought was a ploy to get us to hand over some money to him. Since this is maintained by the Department of Archaeology surely they can maintain the place. Definitely worth a visit.
