දින දින නොඅඩු දින පුද පැවති මනහර
දනමන රඳන සැදි ගෙඋයන් සිරිත් සර
වැජඹෙන පසිඳු මහ රයිගම්පුර අතුර
බබළන සොඳුරු වීදාගම මහ වෙහෙර

The temple is now known as Sri Pushkararama Rajamaha Viharaya at Pathahawatte, Kothalawela is certainly an important piece of Raigampura Heritage – and not just for its religious significance.

Reachable by taking the right turn at ‘Kotalawela junction’ – near the 11th-kilometer post on Panadura-Horana Road, the entire land of the temple of 12 Hectares (5 acres), an archeological reserve since 1970, is surrounded by a huge wall of kabook. It is 2 meters wide and the height varies between 2 -3 meters. Given the depth of the foundation, the original height could have been easily twice of that. This wall dates back to either Kotte or Gampola period.
