Anuradhapura, one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, echoes with the footsteps of ancient civilizations. Its sprawling archaeological complex is replete with towering dagobas, sacred Bo trees, and intricately carved ruins. Abhayagiri and Jetavanaramaya stupas are awe-inspiring structures that harken back to a golden era of Buddhism. As the first capital of Sri Lanka, Anuradhapura is a living testament to the island’s rich historical legacy.
