The Ruwanweli Maha Seya, sometimes referred to as the Mahathupa (the Great Thupa), which is a stupa(a hemispherical structure containing relics) in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka. The stupa has the greatest collection of the Buddha's relics anyhow quarts, or one Dona and is where they are kept. Around 140 B.C, Sinhalese Monarch Dutugemunu, who succeeded Chola King Ellalan as king of Sri Lanka following a conflict, constructed it. Other names for it include Swarnamali Seya, Rathnamali Seya, and Svaṇṇamāli Mahaceti (in Pali).

This is one of the 16 sites of worship known as the "Solosmasthana" and the "Atamasthana" (the 8 places of veneration). With a height of 103 meters (338 feet) and a diameter of 290 meters, the stupa is one of the oldest and tallest structures in the world (951 ft). Numerous rulers restored the stupa, which had an initial height of roughly 55 meters (180 feet). After this stupa, the Kaunghmudaw Pagoda in Sagaing, Myanmar was designed. The Mahavamsa provides a thorough description of the stupa's construction and dedication ceremonies.
