Polonnaruwa

1 March 2020

A break from the wildlife today as we decided to visit the archaeological relic city of Polonnaruwa.

Polonnaruwa was the 2nd ancient kingdom of Sri Lanka, it was established in the 10th Century when the Chola Dynasty (Tamils) from southern India invaded Anuradhapura the then capital.

Today the remains of this once extensive city are a world heritage site and comprise the relics of palaces, temples, waterworks and many other buildings.

  1. This design is spectacular! You obviously know how to keep a
    reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to
    start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Great job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that,
    how you presented it. Too cool!
