Seema Malaka is a Buddhist temple in the Beira Lake in Colombo, Srilanka. This temple mainly used for meditation rather than for worship. Seema Malika is part of the Gangaramaya Temple and is situated few hundred meters to its east. With water surrounding its all three sides and all trees around the lake give the whole atmosphere a great peaceful feel. There are some birds around there too.
According to Wikipedia the temple was originally constructed in the late 19th century. After the original structure slowly sank into the water arround 1970s it was brought in to redesign and constructed a srilankan architect named Geoffrey Bawa In 1976.
