Maligawila-located about 15 km to the south of
Monaragala-is famous for the two colossal statues of Buddha dating back to
7th century AD. Both the statues are carved from crystalline limestone.
One of the statues is 11m high and is considered to be the world's largest
free standing Buddha figure.
About 1km from Maligawila is Dambegoda where another statue of Buddha,
which is 10m high and called Avalokitheswara Bodhisattva-a divine being
who chooses to reside on the human plane to help ordinary people attain
salvation-is located.
