スリランカのランカラマヤ: 2000 年以上の歴史を持つ寺院

スリランカのランカラマヤ寺院の物語は伝説のようなものです。紀元前 103 年は、アヌラーダプラのワラガンバ王 (ヴァッタガミニ アバヤとしても知られる) にとって記念すべき年でした。正当な王として彼は王国の侵略者に攻撃され、その年の間、彼はシラソーバ・カンダカと呼ばれる場所に隠れて彼らの敗北を計画しました。彼の計画はうまくいき、同年に侵略者は滅ぼされ、侵略の失敗後に彼は即位することができた。

シラソバ・カンダカは、彼の命を救ってくれた場所として、そして彼の治世への道を歩み始めた場所として、彼の記憶の中で非常に特別な場所を占めていました。したがって、彼はそれを記念して仏塔を建て、それをシラソバ・カンダカ・セティヤと名付けました。この仏塔は、紀元前 250 年にスリランカに仏教が確立されてから最初に建てられた仏塔であるトゥパラマと建築的に似ていました。直径 45 フィートあったと思われるヴァタダージの屋根を支える 88 本の柱で建てられました。 vatadage は、中央にある実際の仏塔を囲む屋根付きのホールのような構造で、構造全体が地上 10 フィートの高さに建てられていました。

スリランカのランカラマヤ寺院:寺院の現状

現在、実際の仏塔は改修されていますが、広い中庭の真ん中にある数本の折れた柱の残骸を除いて、ヴァタダージュの面影はほとんど残っていません。仏塔の名前も、Silasobha Khandaka Cetiya から、よりシンプルな Lankaramaya に変更されました。

ランカラマヤは、象の池や古い地下運河網 (数百年前に遡る) とともに、数千年前に使用されていた複雑な建築の好例です。これらは考古学や歴史愛好家にとって興味深い場所です。ランカラマヤは、スリランカの古代王国アヌラーダプラへの休暇にぜひ訪れるのに最適な場所です。
