Lenawara Raja Maha Viharaya is situated just outside Horana on a Rock formation. The Image house in situated inside the cave. The Bodhi tree has seemingly grown out of the rock. The temple dates back to the reign of King Devanampiyatissa. The cave dwelling of the Brahmin orignal given leave to reside here can still be seen. The view from the top is quite spectacular especially the sunset.
