The Awkana Buddha is another great effort of our forefathers. It is situated the way to Anuradhapura junction. Near to the statue there is a famous lake called “Kala Wewa”. Both of them were created by king Dathusena (who ruled Sri Lanka in 455 AD). All the devotees who come to worship this statue amazed about this. The amazing thing is the whole statue was made by rock. This brings a great proud to Sri Lanka & shows the talents & intelligence of our old forefathers to the whole world.
