Anuradhapura is the earliest recorded capital of Sri Lanka, a title which it held for more than a thousand years. A World heritage site, its immense dagobas and elaborate stone sculptures, are essentially a physical ode to Buddhism. In this four-hour tour, your guide will introduce you to some of the iconic structures in this sacred city, the stories behind the creations of these monuments, and their architectural influences. This is a peaceful and beautiful city, and we highly recommend exploring this city on bikes to make it a memorable experience.

Highlights

  • Thuparama Vihara (The oldest stupa in Sri Lanka)
  • Jethawanarama Dagoda (One of the largest brick structures in the world)
  • Sri Maha Bodhi (A sapling of the Bo tree under which lord Buddha attained enlightenment)
