Less dazzle, but Thantrimale lights up
View(s):Wijeya Newspapers Ltd. provided the lighting for the historic Thantrimale Raja Maha Vihara near Anuradhapura for the 17th consecutive year to celebrate Poson Poya. On a request by local health authorities, the lighting was kept to a minimum to ensure it did not attract the customary crowds that attend religious programmes at the temple on this day.
