奈纳提武岛上一座备受尊崇的佛教寺庙，据信是佛陀曾到访过的圣地之一。

概述

Nagadeepa Purana Vihara 坐落在 Nainativu 小岛上，从大陆乘坐短途海军渡轮即可到达。其银色钟形佛塔和青花佛堂使其成为北方最神圣的佛教朝圣地之一，被认为是佛陀亲自到访的少数地方之一。宁静的岛屿环境，靠近印度教 Nagapooshani Amman 寺庙，使得从贾夫纳出发的乘船之旅成为一次难忘的半日游。

历史

According to the Mahavamsa chronicle, the Buddha came to Nagadeepa to mediate a dispute between two Naga kings over a jewelled throne, making it one of the sixteen most sacred Buddhist sites associated with his visits to the island. The temple has been rebuilt over the centuries and remains an active place of pilgrimage for Sri Lankan Buddhists.
