A honeymoon
in Polonnaruwa.

Polonnaruwa is the island's second ancient capital — a vast, walkable ruined city of royal palaces, monastic complexes and the famous Gal Vihara rock-cut Buddhas. It is best seen by private bicycle in the cool early hours, with a chauffeur trailing behind.

Stay at The Lake Polonnaruwa — Quiet lakeside boutique, two minutes from the archaeological park gates.
