El Templo Gangaramaya se encuentra en la ciudad de Colombo y es uno de los templos más famosos de Sri Lanka. Fue fundado hace más de 120 años sobre los pantanos del Lago Beira como un lugar de aprendizaje y adoración. Con una de las mejores colecciones de artefactos y textos budistas del mundo, el Templo Gangaramaya ahora es considerado una institución de renombre internacional.

El Día de la Luna Llena de Navam en febrero tiene un significado especial para los budistas. Desde 1979, el Templo Gangaramaya ha celebrado festivales coloridos y vibrantes conocidos como ‘Pereheras’ para conmemorar este día.

El festival se utiliza para mostrar muchos talentos en las artes tradicionales Kandyan. Además, el festival fomenta la armonía entre las comunidades, ya que personas, independientemente de su raza o religión, se agrupan para ver las festividades.

El festival dura dos días. La parte principal del festival es el desfile del relicario sagrado sobre el elefante principal, adornado de forma elaborada, de la procesión.

Bailarines de máscaras, bailarines Kandyan, tambores, bailarines con espadas, caminantes sobre zancos y muchos otros artesanos forman las procesiones del Gangaramaya Navam Maha Perahera. Los eventos se realizan por la noche, iluminados por antorchas encendidas. También están acompañados por cientos de monjes, portadores de banderas budistas y elefantes adornados tradicionalmente con sus mahouts. El Gangaramaya Nawam Maha Perahera no debe ser perdido, es uno de los mejores y más coloridos festivales de Sri Lanka.
