Buddhist God & Goddess Stone Carving

Photo from http://www.lonelyplanet.com/worldguide/destinations/asia/sri-lanka?v=images&a=4

I love Sri Lanka. It is such a beautiful country rich in its culture, and blessed with its scenic nature. What a pity that it is marred with its political unstability and chaos. The photo illustrates the scenic ancient site at Sigiriya, which is one of my favourite site in Sri Lanka.
I bought this stone carving of the God figurine from a tout when waiting to board the bus. Was told that it is replicate from the same relief in the Sigiriya.
