Introduction
Here is the northern gate of the city of Polonnaruva enclosed by high ramparts,
the chambers on either side of the gate must be guard rooms, and nearby are small
Hindu shrines. Either side of the main street running across the main gate is fortified
with walls and the adjacent small rooms may be trade stalls. There is evidence that
there had been a properly laid out intricate drainage system on either side of the
street.
