Anuradhapura
Anuradhapura is the cradle of Sri Lanka’s civilization, where sprawling monastic complexes and sacred stupas narrate over two thousand years of history. The city’s Bodhi Tree, grown from a cutting of the original tree under which the Buddha attained enlightenment, remains a focal point of devotion. Exploring its ancient reservoirs, stone carvings, and colossal dagobas offers a profound glimpse into the ingenuity and spiritual dedication of early Sri Lankan societies.
