About The Brazen Palace
The Brazen Palace (Lovamahapaya) in Anuradhapura was once a magnificent structure initially built during the reign of King Dutugemunu of Sri Lanka (161BC-137BC).
Rebuilt on several occasions, at its peak, it would have had over a thousand rooms and would have risen nine storeys.
Today, the sole remains of the Brazen Palace are 1,600 neatly aligned granite columns arranged in forty rows.
