01 Day
At Bandaranayake International Airport, our chauffeur will meet and greet you in English. Then proceed to Polonnaruwa securely. First, visit the archaeological site of Polonnaruwa. From the 11th to the 13th centuries, Polonnaruwa served as the country`s capital. Polonnaruwa, Sri Lanka, is regarded as one of the world`s best preserved old cities. Polonnaruwa, located around 140 kilometers from Kandy, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its richness of historic remnants. Despite being known as Sri Lanka`s second ancient capital, Polonnaruwa is a superbly maintained city with rich archaeological monuments and natural beauty. Polonnaruwa, in Sri Lanka`s North Central Province, features a historic city, a neighboring "old town," and a "new town" around 6 kilometers away. The archaeological sites are compactly laid out and relatively accessible, and tours can be made on foot or, more commonly, by bike.
Next, we visit Minneria or Kaudulla National Park, which is nearby. Wildlife safaris can be enjoyed at Minneriya and Kaudulla National Parks. Minneriya National Park is well-known for its annual `elephant gathering,` which occurs between August and September each year. During the dry season, 200–300 elephants congregate around the Minneriya reservoir, which has lush vegetation. This is a beautiful experience in which you may witness elephants feeding and bathing while socializing with the rest of the herd. Kaudulla is around 40 minutes from Minneriya and is home to a huge population of Sri Lankan elephants. From August through September, large herds of elephants congregate at water holes near Kaudulla, similar to Minneriya. The park also has endemic mammals, reptiles, and amphibians, such as the Sri Lankan sloth bear, albino axis deer, and the elusive Sri Lankan leopard. Because of the 160 species found here, Kaudulla has been designated an Important Bird Area.
Finally, you may visit an Ayurvedic treatment spa center to relax yourself. At the Ayurvedic Spa, soothing luxury therapies pamper your mind, body, and soul. Traditional Ayurvedic therapies, passed down through thousands of years in Sri Lanka, are administered by trained Ayurvedic therapists and tailored to your specific physical health needs. The fundamental principles of Ayurveda concern the natural approach to living a healthy existence.
