A majestic stupa rising over the landscape on a rocky outcrop. According Buddhist annals, Tapassu Balluka, the two merchants who met Buddha just after attaining enlightenment and who offered his first meal was given some hair by Buddha. The two merchants arrived in Sri Lanka and part of their holy relics were given to a merchant friend called ‘Kanaka’ who took it to his Keppetipola village. There he offered this relic to a regional king called Bimba who had built this stupa enshrining this holy relic. Based on this information, this stupa would haven first built around 589 BC even though its unlikely what you see today is the same stupa.
The current temple is believed to built during reign of king Parakramabahu IV of Kurugengala kingdom in 14th century. On one side of the stupa is a large ancient rock inscription now mostly faded even though the images of animals can be still seen.
