Kokanada
Placeพระราชวังที่สร้างใหม่ของเจ้าชายโพธิราชกุมาร ซึ่งครั้งหนึ่งพระองค์ทรงเชิญพระพุทธเจ้าและภิกษุสงฆ์มาเสวยภัตตาหาร
The palace of Bodhirājakumāra, to which he invited the Buddha and the monks to a meal when the Buddha was staying at Bhesakalāvana; the palace was just completed (Vin.ii.127; iv.199; M.ii.91). The artisan who built it was blinded, in case he should build another like it (J.iii.157; but see DhA.iii.134 f, where it is said that, warned by Bodhi’s friend, Sañjikāputta, the builder escaped on a magic bird).
According to Buddhaghosa (MA.ii.739), the palace was called Kokanada (lotus), because it was built in the form of a hanging lotus.
