Anuradhapura,
a luxury guide.

Anuradhapura was Sri Lanka's capital for over a thousand years and remains one of Buddhism's most important pilgrimage centres. The archaeological park is huge — vast white dagobas, sacred bodhi trees, monastic ruins — and rewards a slow, private visit with a Buddhist scholar at your side.

Best time: June to September. Duration: 2 nights.
