Situated six miles from Colombo, besides the Kelani River, stands the ancient Kelani Raja Maha Viharaya with a history that dates back nearly 2,563. According to the Mahavamsa, Lord Buddha stopped at this ancient temple during a visit to Sri Lanka in 523 BC where he was invited to preach at the invitation of the king. Each year, on the full moon day of January, the Duruthu Perahera is held displaying the ancient traditions, cultural heritage, traditional folklore, folk music and the rhythmic dance forms and drum beats, which have developed throughout the ages around Buddhism and Buddhist practices in the island.
