Hiriwadunna Viharaya (Hiriwadunna Sri Bodhiraja Forest Hermitage) es un templo budista ubicado en el pueblo de Hiriwadunna en el Distrito de Anuradhapura, a solo 2 km de la ciudad de Habarana. Se encuentran esparruidas varias ruinas de estructuras antiguas en los terrenos del templo. El antiguo Lago Hiriwadunna, construido por el rey Wasaba, está ubicado cerca del sitio del templo.

Este sitio se hizo popular hace unos años cuando un sacerdote local publicó un libro de teorías conspirativas titulado ‘Apa Upan Me Helabima Budun Upan Jambudweepayai’, en el que argumentaba que Buda nació y vivió en la antigua Sri Lanka. Una gran losa de piedra, probablemente un Asanagara (silla simbólica de Buda), yace en el fondo del antiguo árbol Bo, ahora parcialmente enterrado bajo las raíces del árbol, y ha sido identificada como Vajrasanaya, el lugar donde Buda se sentó durante su iluminación. Independientemente de la validez de estas ideas en este libro, que ha sido rechazado por muchos e incluso prohibido en bibliotecas, Hiriwadunna es un lugar histórico que debe ser visitado por aquellos interesados en la historia de Sri Lanka y el patrimonio budista.
