Buddhism is the majority religion in Sri Lanka and wherever you travel in this island nation there are reminders of its significance to the 70% of the country who follow the religion. A short drive from Anuradhapura lays the small village that holds a special place in the history of Buddhism in Sri Lanka. It was here in Mihintale in 246 BC where the son of Indian Buddhist emperor Ashoka led a mission to Sri Lanka. He met the then Sri Lankan King, Devanampiya Tissa in Mihintale and started the following of Buddhism that continues to this day.
I'm showing this hidden gem in Sri Lanka, this beautiful place you should visit, must include to your Sri Lanka Itenary. Also telling you the history and significance about this place.
