Your Hotel in Colombo
Colombo, Colombo, Sri Lanka Colombo, the vibrant capital of Sri Lanka, is a melting pot of cultures and influences. Its bustling streets are lined with colonial-era buildings, modern skyscrapers, and bustling markets. The city's rich history, diverse cuisine, and warm hospitality make it a captivating destination for travelers from around the world.
Dambadeniya Ancient Kingdom Museum, Dambadeniya, Sri Lanka The kingdom of Dambadeniya was at its peak during the mid-thirteenth century, especially during the reign of King Parakramabahu II. He was a peaceful king who brought Sinhalese literature to new heights with his epic poetic masterpieces ‘Kavisilumina’ and ‘Visuddi Marga Sannasa’. You will get to see the recently excavated remains of the old Temple of the Tooth, where the Tooth Relic was housed previously, and the ruins of the royal palace complex with its gardens, walls and moats. 60 minutes
Yapahuwa Rock Fortress, Yapahuwa, Sri Lanka A royal residence in 13th century Yapahuwa was able to preserve some interesting remains. While many traces of other ancient defenses are still seen, an ornamental stairway remains as the main piece.
The ruined walls of Yapahuwa form a rough semicircle. The ends join the foot of the high steepsided rocky granite outcrop. The outer fortification, an earthen rampart which extends to about a mile is about 20 feet in height. Over the rampart are the ruins of a brick wall that was erected to protect the interiors. Around the rampart was a moat. Access to the fortress was by means of the three gates that were connected to three causeways. Within this rampart was an inner fortification: a stone wall, 12 feet in height and about 500 yards long with a moat outside it and with two gates.
The homes of the ordinary people would have been between the outer and inner walls while the king’s palace, administrative buildings and of course the Temple of the Tooth was within the inner wall. 120 minutes
Panduwasnuwara Kingdom, Kurunegala, Sri Lanka Yapahuwa was the capital of Sri Lanka right after Dambadeniya, when the Dravidians invaded. The fortress was built on a giant rock in the style of the Sigiriya rock fortress. However, the architecture of this fortress is completely different from Sigiriya with wide staircases, beautiful stone sculptures and highly detailed carvings on pillars. On your visit you will be able to climb to the fortress and view the ruins of the stupa on the summit of the rock. The stupa has some notable statues and imagery from the Kandyan era that you can peruse. 120 minutes

Intressant historia och trevlig guide. Vi uppskattade att vi fick gå turen i våran egen takt utan stress. För vissa ställen vill man ta sig mer tid än kanske andra beroende på ens intresse. Väldigt trevligt och avslappnat.

We hade a private tour to the ancient city’s of Sri Lanka. It was nice walking around with no stress. You walked around at you own pace. Looking and listening to the history of the three different places.

If you are visiting Sigiriya Rock Fortress, there's no reason to spend money on this tour UNLESS you study archaeology. Be prepared to climb very steep steps. The Buddha temple in the cave is unusual and beautiful.
