The next destination on our 3-week journey through Sri Lanka is the sacred city of Anuradhapura & a must-stop on your travel itinerary! We truly loved this place and it’s one of our favorites from our backpacking trip. This UNESCO World Heritage Site was the first capital of Sri Lanka and holds major cultural, religious, and historical significance. Its religious importance makes the destination a pilgrimage for devotees. Over an area of ~40 square kilometers, you will find gigantic dagobas and beautiful temples. Together with Mihintale, Anuradhapura is the perfect destination to learn more about Sri Lanka’s culture & history.

Besides being an absolutely beautiful scenic place, the locals and its atmosphere just stole our hearts. Anuradhapura was one of the perfect places to get a better taste and feel of Sinhalese daily life. Since we encountered fewer tourists here compared to other popular places like Ella and Sigiriya, it was a more serene experience. We would 100% recommend putting it on your Sri Lanka itinerary, for which two days are just the perfect amount. #srilanka #anuradhapura #travelvlog #buddhism #temple
