Polonnaruwa was the second capital of Sri Lanka, from the 11th - 13th Century. Unlike in the first capital, Anuradhapura which is mainly composed of Buddhist religious sites, here you'll find the remains of multi-storey palaces, royal pavilions and bathing ponds complete with changing rooms - all standing testament to the luxurious lifestyle of the royalty - alongside Buddhist and Hindu temples with flawless craftsmanship and artistry.
Polonnaruwa is a unique city of lakes and historic sites located fairly close together, which makes it a great place to experience on a bicycle. You can weave around from ponds to temples, marvelling at the wonders built a 1000 years ago and taking in the landscape with the wind in your hair. It’s a great opportunity to experience local life too. Stop at the roadside for a refreshing ‘king coconut’ or even a yummy snack of ‘pol roti’ hot off the hearth!
Half a day cycling through Polonnaruwa will bring the splendours of the city closer to you, transporting you to another time.
You can include this experience as part of an Experience Travel Group holiday designed exclusively with you.
