Today, we are visiting the ancient city of Polonnaruwa. Polonnaruwa, recognized by UNESCO, served as the second capital of the Singhalese kingdom and is one of the oldest kingdoms in Sri Lanka's history (1070 AD – 1284 AD). This medieval city was once the seat of power for some of the most influential rulers in the history of Ceylon, the former name of Sri Lanka. The remains of legendary palaces, gigantic pagodas, ancient sculptures in monasteries, huge manmade lakes, and many other ruins from ancient times bear witness to the prosperity of this city, which was once greatly influenced by foreign intruders in Sri Lankan history. Return to the hotel.
