Short tour to Sigiriya, Anuradhapura & Wilpattu

Sigiriya is one of Sri Lanka’s most priceless historical sites. Locals refer to this ancient palace and fortress complex as the “Eighth Wonder of the World,” and hundreds of visitors visit it each year because of its tremendous archaeological significance. It is most likely the top tourist destination in Sri Lanka. By the end of 1831, Europeans had found Sigiriya. While he traveled from Polonnaruwa to Sigiriya, British army major John Forbes made the discovery. This rock fortress was first excavated by a large number of historians and archaeologists, and it was during these digs that the full splendor of the rock was revealed. The rock’s summit is a fortress with gardens and parks,

Then you will visit Anuradhapura. Anuradhapura is a city in Sri Lanka’s North Central Province’s Anuradhapura District. Sanghamitta, the founder of an order of Buddhist nuns, carried a cutting from the “tree of enlightenment,” the Buddha’s fig tree, to this hallowed city in the third century B.C. Following an invasion in 993, Anuradhapura, the political and ecclesiastical center of Ceylon for 1,300 years, was abandoned. The magnificent site, with its palaces, monasteries, and monuments, is once again accessible after spending many years hidden away in thick vegetation.

Finally you can visit Wilpattu. Wilpattu National Park is one of the oldest and largest national parks in Sri Lanka, located in the northwest part of the country. Spanning over 1,317 square kilometres, it is renowned for its diverse ecosystems and remarkable wildlife. The park features a mix of dense forests, scrublands, open grasslands, and numerous natural lakes known as “villus.” These villus serve as vital watering holes for wildlife, attracting a wide range of animals, including elephants, leopards, sloth bears, deer, crocodiles, and various bird species.
