'Mihinthale', Sri Lanka.


There was supposed to have been a grove of mango trees, close to the Mihinthale hillock in the plains surrounding Anuradhapura. The oral IQ test administered to King Devanampiya Tissa was based on the mango tree. The picture shows the place of the mango grove with some ancient ruins. The second picture shows the 'chaitya' on the Mihinthale hillock.
