Now that you know what you need to travel to Sri Lanka, let\u2019s travel around this incredible country!<\/p>\n

Sri Lanka is a country with an infinite cultural diversity.
\nThe different ethnicities and immense history make Sri Lanka a very, very special place.
\nIt is the birthplace of one of the oldest and purest strains of Buddhism \u2013 which makes it even more special to me, as I am so sympathetic to this religion.<\/p>\n

Colombo, the ancient cities of Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa and Sigiriya \u2013 the country\u2019s golden age \u2013 Kandy with its tea plantations, the Yala National Park, the fortified city of Galle and the beaches are more than enough reasons to fall in love with this country!<\/p>\n

There were places I had put on the \u201cnot to be missed\u201d list \u2013 the ancient cities of Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa and Sigiriya, the Kandy region, and a safari in Yala.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

We divided our trip by regions.
\nWe flew to Colombo (which is in the west) but from there we went straight to Dambulla which is in the central region near Sigiriya \u2013 a trip we already made with Parveen who had picked us up at Colombo airport, and which lasted about 4 hours .<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with the first three days, which were the hardest to discover the oldest and most historic cities in the country!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Dambulla Golden Temple<\/strong>
\nWorld Heritage since 1991, this site consisting of five caves with Buddhist temples forces you to climb huge steps (or so I thought, until I climbed Sigiriya and Pirudangala!) in rock to contemplate its beauty.
\nThe most imposing image is the 15-meter reclining Buddha. The caves are imposingly decorated with gold and colorful frescoes with religious images.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThis temple had its history marked by the refuge of King Valagam when he was expelled from Anuradhapura. Upon his return to the throne he had the site transformed into a sacred temple of worship.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

\"\"<\/a>
The\u00a0stunning view of the Golden Temple was a small omen of what would turn out to be the rest of the trip<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From here, and quite exhausted from the trip, we decided to head to the hotel where we would stay for the first few nights, the Jetwing Lake Dambulla Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Sunset at the Jetwing pool<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The following day we started very early on the adventure of visiting the two ancient cities \u2013 Sigiriya and Pollonnaruwa.<\/p>\n

Starting the day climbing about 700 steps is just sick, right? But that\u2019s precisely what we did!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Lion\u2019s Rock in Sigiriya<\/strong>
\nThe ruins of Sigiriya Palace, at the top of Lion\u2019s Rock, are the country\u2019s biggest attraction. Walking through gardens that were once an immense water distribution complex and an authentic city, the palace is only accessible to those willing to climb more than 700 steps.
\nThis kingdom emerged in the 5th century, on top of a rock 375 meters high.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
The<\/i>\u00a0king at his castle<\/i><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The terrible Kassyapa killed his father to seize power. He ruled the kingdom for 18 years, but obviously, he had to take refuge in a place of difficult access in order not to be captured and killed. And so he decided to make a palace almost touching the sky! This historic and incredible complex is shaped like a lion, hence the name.
\nRight at the entrance we can see the gigantic paws of the lion.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But after the challenge of reaching the top of the rock by some steep and rudimentary stairs, we were in perplexed mode, such is the beauty.
\nIn fact, Sri Lanka has the most impressive views of all the countries I\u2019ve visited.
\nHow is it possible 2500 years ago to have the ability to build a complex on top of a mountain with that grandiosity\u00a0and lordliness?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Even before we reach the top, we have a plain as far as the eye can see, adorned with statues among the vegetation.
\nAt the top of the rock, only the remains of what was once a grandiose and insane complex with gardens, fountains, royal pools, palace and temples remain. Obviously this complex is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.<\/p>\n

From here we head to Pollonnaruwa<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Pollonaruva is an architectural complex filled with palaces, bridges, meeting rooms, royal baths, monasteries, various temples and numerous Buddha statues.
\nIt has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1982.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tip: take flip flops, espadrilles or flat sandals that are easy to remove. Whenever you enter sacred ground, you have to take off your shoes.
\nAlso take shoulders and legs covered. As on the trip to Bali we had bought some beautiful Sarongs, we put them in our backpack and we use them all the time.<\/p>\n

This complex is huge, consisting essentially of ruins, but which is perfectly perceived as an imposing and highly organized city from other times.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The ideal way to visit Pollonnaruwa is by bicycle or, as we did, with a driver. Why? Because the complex is gigantic and even the ticket office is extremely far from the complex itself!<\/p>\n

We visit the Palace of King Nishshanka Malla which is located by Lake Bendiwewa, surrounded by lush gardens, but outside the archaeological complex of Polonnaruwa.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
King\u00a0Nishshanka Malla Palace<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We also visit the Royal Palace, at the southern end of the ruins and its incredible friezes carved in stone with magnificent reliefs of elephants.
\nWhat I liked the most, and don\u2019t ask me why, was the Sacred Quadrangle of Polonnaruwa. It is a compact group of ruins located on a small elevation of land, surrounded by a wall.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Sacred Quadrangle of Polonnaruwa<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This complex is huge and takes a good two hours to visit.<\/p>\n

Despite the craziness of the day, and the tiredness, and how funny we thought it was to start the day climbing 700 steps, we decided to end it the same way and went to what was one of our biggest surprises and challenges on this trip.
\nThe mountain of Pidurangala!<\/p>\n

Pidurangala<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not part of the usual Sri Lankan itineraries, but in addition to having read about the breathtaking views over Sigiriya, Parveen told us it was a must-see for the best sunset of our lives<\/p>\n

\"A<\/a>
The easy part of the climb<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Not being the usual stopping point, there are very few tourists visiting, which is great, as it becomes a unique experience.<\/p>\n

There is a symbolic price to pay at the entrance, as in reality, in addition to this rock formation, the site is home to a temple with a reclining Buddha statue. The focus was not on the temple at all but on the top of the mountain and what would be the best sunset of my life.<\/p>\n

Parveen accompanied us all the way, which gave us some confidence, since I didn\u2019t know that, in reality, the journey was quite complicated!
\nThe first part consists of very irregular stairs, rocky and clearly made by secular use. They are no longer easy stairs but they are easily climbable!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We couldn\u2019t make it easier because the time of sunset was approaching and the mountain still takes a while to be traversed, especially if other people are coming down (there\u2019s only one path and it\u2019s not that spacious).<\/p>\n

It was an incredible feeling, diving into the dense forest without knowing very well what was waiting for us. It\u2019s just that it doesn\u2019t really have a script. As I told you, it is not a place that is part of the usual places to visit, which is why nothing is organized in that sense. It is done under the responsibility of each one. I believe that the fact that I turned 36 that day enhanced the experience!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Along the way we found a small cave where another reclining Buddha, made of brick, rested.<\/p>\n

Only\u00a0at the end of the climb I realized that I did not know what I was going to do, definitely! Yes, it\u2019s one thing to climb meander and difficult steps, another very different is to climb granite rocks!!!
\nI\u2019m even a person who goes to the gym with a certain regularity, but that was quite exaggerated, besides being a bit\u00a0the dangerous! The fact that Parveen was climbing\u00a0with us has made a big difference.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip: wear sneakers and comfortable clothes on this day! You\u2019re going to need it!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\u00a0The view from Sigiriya<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

But in reality, there were children accompanying their parents, so if they could, I could, too! I must say that\u00a0in the last rock, things were not that easy, but I had the help of other tourists who were already at the top and pulled me.<\/span><\/p>\n

But\u2026 As soon as I realized the dimension\u00a0of what we could\u00a0see from the top of Pidurangala<\/em>, all that effort faded at a glance. On one side Sigiriya<\/em>, and all around just green, very green, lots of forest, lots of nature. The sky was perfect, the sun was about to set, and that moment was undoubtedly one of the most perfect moments of my life.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
A\u00a0unique moment!<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

That day ended in an exemacity! It was time to rest because the next day the time would also be filled!
\nWe stayed only 10 days in Sri Lanka, if we could have stayed much longer? We could, but like I told you, we have a clinic to run, and that limits us on\u00a0time.<\/span><\/p>\n

But these \u00a010 days were\u00a0immensely taken advantage of. It always makes me a bit crazy\u00a0when I hear some people saying,
\n\u201coh, just for 8 days it\u2019s not even worth going that far, these trips are three weeks at least. That\u2019s why I\u2019ve never been to these kind of countries!\u201d<\/span>
\nConvince yourself of one thing: time is the least of your problems! If I have the chance to travel and be happy for 10 days, I\u2019m not going to do it because I should go three weeks?<\/span>
\nAnyone who uses this as an argument does not like to travel or will never do so, but loves to issue their opinion on the subject!<\/span><\/p>\n

With the ancient and historical region of the country seen it was time to lighten the trip and go to Kandy!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
