About Anuradhapura Sacred City
Located an accessible day-trip drive from Habarana, Anuradhapura Sacred City is a revered UNESCO World Heritage Site and the cradle of ancient Sri Lankan civilization. Serving as the island’s first royal capital for over a millennium, this vast sanctuary is famed for colossal brick stupas like Ruwanwelisaya and Jetavanaramaya, which rivaled Egypt’s pyramids in antiquity. Pilgrims and travelers visit the sacred Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi, the world's oldest historically documented tree, planted in 288 BC. Exploring its peaceful monastic ruins, sculpted moonstones, and historic reservoirs provides an enriching pilgrimage experience easily undertaken from your comfortable base in Habarana.
