Polonnaruwa, an ancient city in Sri Lanka, is home to several remarkable temples and religious structures. Some of the most notable ones include:

Hatadage – A relic shrine built by King Nissanka Malla, once used to house the sacred tooth relic of the Buddha. It features three granite Buddha statues.

Rankoth Vehera – A large stupa built in the tradition of Anuradhapura Maha Viharaya, resembling the famous Ruwanwelisaya.

Shiva Temple – An ancient Hindu temple, showcasing the influence of South Indian architecture in Polonnaruwa
The Kumara Pokuna bath, also known as the Bathing Pool, is located just outside the southeastern corner of the palace complex. This ancient pool features a central lotus-shaped island and two crocodile-shaped water spouts. It was likely used by the royal family and high officials for ritual baths.
