A monastery in the Pañcayojana district of Ceylon (the modern Bentota). In the time of Parakkamabāhu II. a tooth of Mahā Kassapa was enshrined in the vihāra, and the king visited the vihāra and held a three days' festival in honour of the relic (Cv.lxxxv.81).
Kittinissanka laid out a garden of fruit trees in the vihāra precincts, and later Devappatirāja, minister of Parakkamabāhu II., laid out, on the king's orders, a great grove of coco palm, a yojana broad, from the vihāra up to Kālanadītittha. Cv.lxxxvi.16, 40, 44.
