Parakrama Samudra is an artificial lake on the eastern shore of which the old royal city of Polonnaruwa is located. It was created to supply the surrounding rice fields. There are five separate wewas (reservoirs), which are connected by canals. Parakrama Samudra was built by King Parakramabahu I, who ruled there from 1153 AD to 1153 AD.
Your itinerary for Sri Lanka also takes you to the north, where you can visit the Nagha Theepa Temple. It is one of the three places in the country that were visited by Buddha. This temple is located on the island of Nainativu, making it easy to combine a visit with a boat tour. The historic building consists of a silver-colored stupa, a special Buddhist structure, and three Buddha figures.
The approximately 1,500 km² Yala National Park is located in the south-east of Sri Lanka and is ideal for an adventurous safari. With its rich flora and fauna, it is located in an area that was already settled by Buddhist monks in the 2nd century BC. Yala National Park is known for its large leopard population, but elephants, sloth bears, monitor lizards and other exotic animals can also be admired there. The landscape consists of savannahs, monsoon forests, rivers and a swamp area.
Like many other sights in Sri Lanka, the rocks of Sigiriya are a UNESCOWorld Heritage Site. The impressive, mighty 200-metre-high monolith is located in the middle of a beautiful landscape of rice fields and lakes. King Kassapa had his palace built here around 1500 years ago. The remains are now a tourist attraction, the main attraction being the famous cloud girls.
Go on an exciting safari in Minneriya National Park, which is located in the North Central Province, on your group tour of Sri Lanka. It has one of the world's largest elephant populations. Monkeys, deer, wild rabbits, wild boar and foxes can also be observed there. It is also home to various bird species such as parrots, cranes and eagles.
One of the highlights of your trip is undoubtedly the archaeological park of Polonnaruwa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The ancient royal city impresses with a group of Buddha statues up to 14 meters high. The ruins of the royal palace, which had over 1000 rooms on seven floors, can only be seen in outline today. Although it takes a little imagination to picture the ancient splendor, it is still very impressive.
The Royal Botanical Garden Peradeniya is a highlight for every plant lover and nature enthusiast. More than 4000 plants from all over the world grow here on an area of 60 hectares. In addition to palm avenues, huge bamboo groves, fragrant herb gardens and lotus ponds, there is also an orchid house to admire. The park is also home to many bats.
The Ranweli Spice Garden is not just for amateur chefs. Take a guided tour and learn all about spices such as peppercorns, turmeric, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. You will learn how the aromas develop and how the spices are harvested and processed. Try your favorite spices on the spot and take them home with you as a souvenir of your tour of Sri Lanka.
Nature lovers and active holidaymakers look forward to the 2,245m Adam's Peak, which rises in the central highlands. It has religious significance and attracts vacationers and pilgrims alike.
