Santagiri Dagoba

Tissamaharama (Tissa), Sri Lanka

The original stupa dates to the 2d century BC, although this modern incarnation has been criticized for its top-heavy restoration. A microwave tower, to the right, adds an interesting contrast between historical and modern priorities. Tissa is located near the southeast coast of Sri Lanka, about 20km (12mi) south of Katagarama.

The name of the dagoba can also be spelled as "Sandagiri."
