Step into a city that served as the center of Theravada Buddhism for over a millennium. Anuradhapura is home to the island’s most massive stupas, ancient monastic complexes, and the sacred Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi—the oldest human-planted tree in the world. As you wander through this sprawling UNESCO World Heritage site, you will feel the spiritual energy that has drawn pilgrims here for over 2,000 years.
