一座巨大的白色舍利塔，其历史可以追溯到鲁胡纳王国，是斯里兰卡最大的古代佛塔之一，也是蒂萨镇的中心。

概述

蒂瑟默哈拉玛舍利塔矗立在一个巨大的白色圆顶上，高于周围的稻田和水池，主导着蒂萨的天际线。它是斯里兰卡有史以来最大的佛塔之一，坐落在一座由神殿和一棵神圣的菩提树组成的宁静寺院建筑群内，尤其是在波雅日，这里挤满了朝圣者。它的规模和历史让人想起这座城镇作为南部鲁胡纳王国古都的角色。

历史

The stupa is traditionally attributed to King Kavantissa in the 2nd century BCE and is said to enshrine relics of the Buddha, including a sacred forehead bone and tooth relic. It was one of the great monasteries of the Ruhuna kingdom, which sheltered Sinhalese royalty and served as a launch pad for King Dutugemunu's campaign to unify the island. The stupa has been restored and enlarged several times over the centuries.
