ミヒンタレー病院跡

現在の病院の遺跡は、セナ 2 世 (西暦 853 ~ 887 年) のものとされています。しかし、この建物よりずっと前からミヒンタレーに病院があったと考えられています。病院の内房は仏陀の祠を中心に構成されています。

病院複合施設の入り口は南側にあります。エントランスを開けると四角いオープンエアの空間が広がっています。右側の部屋には石板で作られた四角いタンクがあり、これは病院のジャンタガラヤ(温水と蒸し風呂)であったことを示しています。左側に2部屋あります。最初の小さい部屋は薬局、大きい部屋はダナ・シャラワ (食堂) として識別されます。外庭の空き地では、クラハン・ガラ(ケルン)に似ているが、それよりもはるかに大きい大きな砥石が発見されている。これは患者に与える薬を粉砕するために使用されたものと考えられます。

この広々とした外庭を通り過ぎると、病院の本館に到着します。オープンコートの中央にイメージハウスがあります。中央には二体の仏陀立像があった。しかし、これらの彫像は現在行方不明であり、蓮の形をした石に彫られた彫像の台座のみが現場で発見されています。その周りには患者さんの部屋が並んでいます。各部屋の入り口は神社に面しており、サイズは約 10×10 フィートです。部屋数は31室あり、1部屋に約2名の患者様が入居可能です。したがって、この病院の収容能力は約 60 名であったと考えられます。隅には大きな部屋があり、薬用の桶は北東の東の部屋にあります。
