Hiriwadunna Viharaya (Hiriwadunna Sri Bodhiraja Forest Hermitage) je buddhistický chrám, který se nachází ve vesnici Hiriwadunna v okrese Anuradhapura, pouze 2 km od města Habarana. Na pozemku chrámu se nachází několik ruin starověkých staveb. Starověké jezero Hiriwadunna, které postavil král Wasaba, se nachází poblíž místa chrámu.

Toto místo se stalo populárním před několika lety, kdy místní kněz vydal knihu o spiklenecké teorii s názvem ‘Apa Upan Me Helabima Budun Upan Jambudweepayai’, která tvrdila, že Buddha se narodil a žil ve starověké Srí Lance. Velká deska kamene, pravděpodobně Asanagara (symbolické sedadlo Buddhy), leží na dně staré stromu bo, který je nyní částečně pohřben pod kořeny stromu a byla identifikována jako Vajrasanaya, kde Buddha seděl během osvícení. Bez ohledu na platnost těchto myšlenek v této knize, které byly mnohými odmítnuty a dokonce zakázány v knihovnách, je Hiriwadunna historickým místem, které by měl vidět každý, kdo má zájem o historii Srí Lanky a buddhistické dědictví.
