Sri Lanka Day 36 (Polonnaruwa): The Royal Ancient City

Good morning!

Bye Nature Walk Sigirya! The owner actually came out and waved us good bye and this dog actually followed me out. Freaking scared of dogs because I got chased before last time when I was young together with my cousins.

Took the bus to the junction first in order to change to the bus to Kaduruwela (Polonnawura New Town). Reached Polonnaruwa and rented the bike to go around ancient city and bike really helps to save a lot of money especially when you are stopping over at multiple attractions which are quite close to each other.

Here are some photos of the different attractions in Polonnaruwa Ruins. Didn't have the time to complete the area.

Gal Vihara, where by 4 different buddha statues are being carved out from a big rock

Long bus rides back to Misuki and we reached only at around 11pm because of traffic jam and everything.
