EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Vatadage, also known as the Circular Relic House, located in Polonnaruwa, Sri Lanka. As a testament to ancient civilization and rich cultural heritage, this UNESCO World Heritage site has stood the test of time since its inclusion on the prestigious list in 1982. The Vatadage is an architectural marvel that holds immense significance for Buddhism. Its circular design symbolizes eternity and perfection while housing sacred relics of Lord Buddha. The intricate stone carvings adorning its exterior are a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient Sri Lankan artisans. In this mesmerizing image captured by DEA / C. RIVES UIG from Universal Images Group (UIG), we witness the grandeur of this historical treasure against a backdrop of clear blue skies. The weathered steps leading up to the entrance evoke a sense of reverence and curiosity about what lies within. As we gaze upon this scene devoid of human presence, we are transported back in time, connecting with traditional culture and reflecting on our shared past. This photograph serves as an invitation for travelers seeking spiritual enlightenment or those fascinated by archaeology and ancient temples to embark on a journey through time in Polonnaruwa. With its awe-inspiring architecture and serene surroundings, it's no wonder that visitors from around the world flock to experience this living testament to Sri Lanka's religious heritage firsthand.
