The Mirisaveti Stupa is situated in the ancient city of Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Official Website of Mirisawetiya Maha Dagaba - Sri Lanka )〕 King Dutugamunu built the Mirisaveti Stupa after defeating King Elara. After placing the Buddha relics in the sceptre, he had gone to Tisawewa for a bath leaving the sceptre. After the bath he returned to the place where the sceptre was placed, and it is said that it could not be moved. The stupa was built in the place where the sceptre stood. It is also said that he remembered that he partook a chilly curry without offering it to the sangha. In order to punish himself he built the Mirisavetiya Dagaba. The extent of this land is about 50 acres (20 ha). Although the king ''Kasyapa I'' and ''Kasyapa V'' renovated this, from time to time it was dilapidated. What stands today is the renovation done by the cultural Triangle Fund. ==See also== *Ancient Constructions of Sri Lanka *Atamasthana *Buddhism *Mahawamsa 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mirisawetiya Vihara」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
