The Mahamevnawa Asapuwa is a great place to learn the beautiful art of Buddhism. Whether you are trying to further your knowledge of the triple gem or are new to the religion or simply just need a peaceful place to be at. They are always welcoming to anyone.

Went last night for the first time. Everyone there was very helpful and informative. The monk giving the dharma talk was amazing. I understood more than I thought I would. I will definitely be going back.

This is the best place to learn Buddhism. Very calm and peaceful. Monks are very helpful, so you can learn Lord Buddha's teachings from them. There are special programmes in meditations ,sermons, etc. All are free of charge. There is a good collection of books also. Enough parking space is available free of charge. Clean toilets with baby changing facilities are there. Highly recommend this place for spiritual wellbeing.
