If you are someone who enjoys history and culture, you would love exploring these ruins. It is definitely another must-see in Sri Lanka. . . . #celebrateit #architecture #Polonnaruwa #ancientlandmark #ancientarchitecture #buddhism #buddha #historicallandmarks #srilanka #localguides

Sandagiri Maha Seya is a Buddhist temple in Central Province SRI LANKA. Sandagiri Maha Seya is situated nearby to Sandagiri Maha Viharaya, and close to Church.

Not many will think of Colombo, Sri Lanka as a bucketlist for a tourist destination, many also will think that Sri Lanka is also part of India. Let's throw that all away! Sri Lanka is a place popular with the many tea plantations thruout the entire country and to see that, hop onto one of the most scenic train ride that starts from Ella To Bandulla. The entire journey we paid was about $1 but of course don't expect 1st class treatment in the train, but you will be able to reserve a seat in one of the carriage to give you panoramic view of the surrounding where you will meet tea plantations, scenic Mountain backdrops and thru the many towns, its a relatively relaxing route. Do take the train ride all the way to Badulla to have a view of the Demodara Loop where you can see the Arch Bridge(which was built in 19 century?) making this one of the worth while trip on the train. #bucketlistreboot #srilanka #colombo #nature #teaplantations #scenic #trainride #mustvisit

Sri Lanka is one of those places that has a bit of everything—stunning beaches, lush jungles, ancient temples, and incredible wildlife. Whether you’re exploring the misty hills of Ella, wandering through the ruins of Anuradhapura, or relaxing on the beaches of Mirissa, every part of the country feels like a new adventure. One of the best ways to experience Sri Lanka is by train. The ride from Kandy to Ella, passing through tea plantations and rolling hills, is easily one of the most scenic in the world. Wildlife lovers can head to Yala or Udawalawe National Park to spot elephants, leopards, and countless bird species. The food is another highlight—spicy curries, fresh seafood, and delicious hoppers (crispy bowl-shaped pancakes) are everywhere. And despite being a small island, Sri Lanka’s landscapes change fast, making it easy to go from mountains to beaches in just a few hours. It’s the kind of place where you can slow down, take it all in, and always find something new to explore.

Sigiriya, Sri Lanka **Lion Rock** (Sigiriya Rock Fortress) is one of Sri Lanka's most famous historical sites. It is located in the central part of the country, about 170 kilometers from the capital Colombo. This massive rock fortress, about 370 meters above sea level, is famous for its spectacular views, ancient murals and ingenious architectural design. Historical background: - Lion Rock was built in the 5th century AD by King Kasyapa. In order to avoid his brother's revenge, Cassiabal chose to build palaces and fortresses here. - This rock fortress was once the center of the short-lived Sigiriya Kingdom before it was abandoned and became a hermitage for Buddhist monks. Main attractions: 1. **Lion's Paws**: At the entrance to the top of the mountain there is a pair of huge lion paw sculptures, which were originally part of a huge lion statue, symbolizing power and protection. 2. Mirror Wall: A smooth wall that was once polished so brightly in ancient times that the king could see his own reflection in it. Ancient poems and messages are engraved on the walls. 3. Frescoes: Fine ancient frescoes are preserved in the alcoves on the west side of the rock, depicting the images of the “Apsaras” with bright colors and beautiful lines. 4. **Mountaintop Palace Ruins**: The top of the mountain was once the king’s palace. Today, only the foundation and some structures remain, but from here you can overlook the magnificent scenery around. Travel Tips: - The best time to visit is early morning or late evening, avoiding the hot midday. - Climbing Lion Rock requires a certain amount of physical strength. It is recommended to wear comfortable shoes and bring enough water. Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in Kandy **Kandy Temple of the Tooth Relic** is located in Kandy, the cultural capital of Sri Lanka. It is one of the most important holy places for Buddhists, enshrining the tooth relic of Sakyamuni Buddha. Historical background: - The tooth relic is believed to be the left canine tooth of the Buddha left after his death. It was originally kept in India and later secretly brought to Sri Lanka by a princess, becoming a symbol of Sri Lankan royalty. - The Temple of the Tooth Relic was built in the 16th century and has been expanded and protected by successive kings. During the Kandy Dynasty, the Temple of the Tooth Relic became the center of Buddhist belief. Main attractions: 1. **Buddha's Tooth Relic**: Enshrined in the holy room on the second floor of the temple, in a gorgeously decorated golden niche. There is a fixed time every day for believers to pay their respects. 2. **Rituals and Festivals**: Solemn Buddhist ceremonies (Puja) are held every morning, noon and evening, with monks chanting, beating drums and offering flowers. The Esala Perahera in July and August every year is one of the biggest festivals in Sri Lanka, with a 10-day procession featuring elephants, dancers and torch performances. 3. **Architecture and Art**: The temple architecture incorporates the Kandy style, and the wood carvings, ivory products and murals showcase the essence of traditional Sri Lankan art. Travel Tips: - You must dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees) and take off your shoes when entering the temple. - Kandy is very crowded during the Buddha Tooth Festival, so it is recommended to book accommodation in advance. Both are the essence of Sri Lanka's cultural heritage and are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. #MarchGoodPlaces2025
