Sri Lanka's Cultural Triangle Holidays

Sri Lanka Cultural Triangle holidays invite you to discover no less than four UNESCO World Heritage Sites across the country’s central plains.

Considered to be the most renowned landmark in Sri Lanka - discover the striking rock fortress of Sigiriya, also known as ‘Lion Rock’. The hike to the top is challenging but worthwhile to see rock frescoes, palace ruins and unbelievable views. Dambulla’s incredible cave temples are equally worth a visit - a complex of five caves filled with Buddha statues, reached by a hike to the top of a sloping rock.

The crumbling ancient capitals of Polonnaruwa and Anuradhapura are additional must-sees as part of any visit to Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle – home to majestic ruins and temples. With the added benefit of spotting elephants during a game drive through wonderful Minneriya National Park, a stay in this region is sure to be a highlight of any holiday to Sri Lanka.
