THE PLACE
Muhudu Maha Viharaya stands close to the coast at Pottuvil, where pale sand surrounds the temple and its archaeological remains. The open coastal setting gives this historic Buddhist site a character quite unlike an inland monastery.

THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S NOTES
Dress for a temple visit and avoid climbing on archaeological remains. The sand and open ground can become very hot at midday.
