}}Uththararama Purana Vihara (also known as Maligagodella Vihara) is a historic Buddhist temple situated at Udugampola in the Western province, Sri Lanka. The temple is located on Udugampola – Weediyawatta junction road approximately {{convert|0.5|km|mi|abbr=on}} away from the Udugampola Roundabout. The temple has been formally recognised by the Government as an archaeological site in Sri Lanka. The designation was declared on 7 July 2005 under the government Gazette number 1401.[1]

History

The historical chronicles such as Rajaveliya and Alakeshwara Yuddhaya reveal that the Udugampola and its surrounding area was a provincial kingdom during the Kotte period.[2] According to these resources, the elder of three of sons of king Parakramabahu VIII (1484–1505) became the king of Kingdom of Kotte by the name of Dharma Parakramabahu while the second son prince Thaniya Wallabha lived in the principality of Madampe.[3] The third son, prince Sakalakala Wallabha lived in that of Udugampola as a viceroy[4] The evidence about the existence of a palace in Udugampola is proved by the copper plate, Kadirana Sannasa which was discovered in Kadirana cinnamon plantation near Negombo. The Sannasa records a donation made to a Brahmin by the king at a royal assembly held in his new palace at Udugampola on new moon day of (18 June 1517) when a full solar eclipse was sighted.[5][6]

According to the archaeological evidences found around the area, it is believe that the place called Maligagodella (Mound of Palace) where the Uththararama temple stands today to be the place where the palace of King Sakalakala Wallabha was situated. There are some ruins still can be seen in the locality including remains of an ancient pond with retaining walls of masonry, and some stone works. The ancient pond, Pathaha Pokuna adjoining the Uththararama temple has been identified as the bathing pool of the king.[7]
