    Description

    The temple of Vegiriya has both a Viharaya and a Devalaya, within a cave separated by a partitioning wall. The Viharayas has a sedant Buddha image and a Stupa. There are two beautiful moonstones at the entrance to both the Viharayas and the Devale., and a stone doorway to the former.

    Within the Devale are two beautiful statues of Natha and his consort Tara, made of Clay or stucco. They are of interest to the student of iconography.
