What you can expect

  • Polonnaruwa Ancient Kingdom:

    Polonnaruwa, also known as Pulasthi Nagaram, was the second capital of ancient Sri Lanka after Anuradhapura. It remained the country’s most important city for over two centuries, until the capital was moved to Dambadeniya in 1284 AD. The kings who ruled this remarkable city contributed greatly to its culture and religion, leaving behind impressive temples, monuments, and architectural masterpieces that still stand today.

    Duration: Approximately 2 hours

    During your visit to this UNESCO World Heritage Site, you will explore iconic landmarks such as Gal Vihara, Polonnaruwa Vatadage, Sathmahal Prasada, Lankathilaka Image House, Rankoth Vehera, Nissankalatha Mandapaya, Shiva Devalaya, and many more fascinating ruins that reflect the brilliance of ancient Sri Lankan civilisation.

    After your tour, relax as you are driven back to your hotel in Trincomalee.
