Sacred Tree


The Sri Maha Bodhi Tree, located within the Mahamewna Gardens, is one of the oldest and most sacred trees in the world. Believed to be a sapling from the original Bodhi Tree under which the Buddha attained enlightenment, it was brought to Sri Lanka in the 3rd century BCE. Visit this revered site to witness the ancient tree and the surrounding temples, and observe the devotees offering prayers and floral tributes.

White Stupa


The Ruwanwelisaya Stupa is one of the most iconic and sacred Buddhist monuments in Anuradhapura, dating back to the 2nd century BCE. The striking white stupa stands at 103 meters tall and is surrounded by a complex of ancient structures and sculptures, including elephant statues and intricate stone carvings. Marvel at the architectural grandeur of the stupa and experience the spiritual atmosphere of this revered site.

Ancient Stupa


The Jetavanaramaya Stupa, once the world's tallest stupa, was built in the 3rd century CE and stands as a testament to the ancient city's architectural prowess. The stupa's vast brick structure, adorned with intricate carvings and statues, provides a glimpse into the rich history of Anuradhapura. Explore the surrounding monastic complex, which features remains of ancient buildings, including a large image house with well-preserved murals.

Rock Temple


The Isurumuniya Temple, a rock temple carved into a cliff face, is known for its exquisite stone carvings and serene atmosphere. The temple complex features the famous "Lovers" carving, an intricate relief depicting a royal couple, as well as other intricate carvings and sculptures. Visit the Isurumuniya Temple for its unique architecture, beautiful artwork, and tranquil ambiance.

Archaeological Museum


The Anuradhapura Archaeological Museum provides a comprehensive overview of the ancient city's rich history, culture, and architecture. The museum features a vast collection of artifacts, including sculptures, pottery, coins, and jewellery, as well as informative displays on the city's archaeological sites. A visit to the museum offers valuable context to the ruins and monuments scattered throughout Anuradhapura.

Biking or Cycling


One of the best ways to explore the expansive ancient city of Anuradhapura is by bike. Rent a bicycle or join a guided cycling tour to navigate the city's network of well-preserved ruins, temples, and ancient monuments.
