At the center of the platform stood the chedi, which has collapsed. Little more than the octagonal base and some of the lower receding circular tiers is left of what is believed to have been a bell shaped chedi in Singhalese style. The reliefs of Buddhist depictions that adorned the octagonal base have disappeared. The Singhalese style bell was topped with a tapering finial. Buddhist devotees used to walk the platform circling the chedi in a clockwise direction to make merit. Surrounding the principal chedi was a large number of subsidiary chedis, of which only the base remain today.
