"Pabalu Vehera is believed to be built by Rupavati, the Queen of King Parakramabahu the Great (1153 – 1186 A.C.). The present name Pabalu (meaning, beads/pebbles), has given to the stupa because of a large number of beads found in the vicinity of this monastic complex. Around the stupa, there are a number of image houses with statues with different postures. A reclining Buddha statue has been kept in the largest image house. Generally Stupa’s have only 4 image houses around it. But there are nine image houses around the stupa."
