这里被认为是神话中的圣人普拉斯提曾经居住的地方,也是传说中国王罗波那诞生之地。这座寺庙由统治古代斯里兰卡首都阿努拉德普勒的德瓦南皮亚·提萨国王(公元前307年至公元前267年)所建。在500名高种姓子弟出家之后,伊苏鲁穆尼亚被建造为他们的居所。迦尸耶婆一世(公元473年至491年)后来修缮了这座精舍,并将其命名为“卡苏吉里·拉德玛哈·维赫拉·布普尔万”。这个名字来源于他的两个女儿和他本人的名字。这里有一座与洞穴相连的精舍,其上方是一处悬崖,悬崖上建有一座小佛塔。可以看出,这座佛塔的建造属于较近时期。在下方,一块似乎从水池中升起的岩石裂缝两侧雕刻着大象的形象。在岩石上还雕刻有一匹马的形象。石板上的伊苏鲁穆尼亚恋人雕刻是从其他地方搬来并安置在这里的。在这座精舍几码之外是兰马苏花园。
