Anuradhapura

For over a millennium, Anuradhapura reigned as the glorious capital of Sri Lanka. Today, this vast archaeological sanctuary features colossal brick stupas rivaling Egypt’s pyramids, intricate moonstone carvings, and the sacred Sri Maha Bodhi tree—the oldest historically documented tree planted by human hands.

Exploring Anuradhapura by bicycle amidst tranquil artificial lakes and quiet woodland ruins is a deeply spiritual and historic journey into antiquity.
