Starting off at the temple in Anuradhapura was an ideal place to start our tour and learn a bit more of why this city is significant to Sri Lanka’s history (it is the first capital after all and a UNESCO World Heritage site) but there’s so much to see in Anuradhapura that you kinda need to … Continue Reading
After finishing off with the first part of Polonnaruwa (only ‘first’ because that’s where we visited first), we drove a few minutes to another big part of this ancient Sri Lankan city – starting with Satmahal Prasada, a 6 layer pyramid-esque structure (used to be 7 layers) with figurines on the walls, which are still visible… … Continue Reading
