Extremely kind and helpful owner. He helped us with many great advices/tips. He even took us for a full day guided tour to Anuradhapura ancient city - he knows a lot about the history of the place, speaks very good English and he was overall an amazing guide. We would highly recommend to book a tour with him, because it's much easier to understand what you are looking at, if you have a guide like him.

    Anuradhapura, one of the world's oldest continuously...

    Anuradhapura, one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, is a treasure trove of ancient history that stretches back to the 4th century BCE. Established by King Pandukabhaya, it served as the majestic capital of Sri Lanka for over a millennium, playing a pivotal role in the island's Buddhist heritage and cultural evolution. The arrival of Buddhism in Sri Lanka, introduced by Mahinda Thera in the 3rd century BCE, marked a transformative era for Anuradhapura. This led to the creation of awe-inspiring stupas, monastic complexes, and elaborate water reservoirs that showcase the ingenuity of the time. Central to this transformation is the revered Sri Maha Bodhi tree, a sapling believed to have been taken from the very tree under which the Buddha attained enlightenment, which continues to be a powerful pilgrimage site. Anuradhapura flourished as a vibrant hub of trade, culture, and religion. Its stunning architecture, exemplified by monumental structures like the Ruwanwelisaya and the Jetavanaramaya, reflects the extraordinary vision and craftsmanship of its builders—each stone telling a story of devotion, power, and artistry. Despite facing invasions and natural calamities that eventually led to its decline in the 10th century CE, Anuradhapura's legacy endured. The capital shifted to Polonnaruwa, but Anuradhapura remained a beacon of historical significance, earning its status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Today, it captivates scholars and travelers alike, offering a glimpse into Sri Lanka's rich cultural lineage and inviting exploration of its ancient ruins, sacred sites, and the profound stories embedded within them. Anuradhapura is not just a city; it’s a living testament to the resilience and depth of a civilization that continues to inspire.

    Anuradhapura is an ancient city which evolved into a very popular place with pilgrims and tourists. Because of the modernization of the city, more and more people visit there to experience the century old civilization. In my view anybody can learn a lot about Buddhist culture, agriculture and simple but happy lives of those people who live there for a long time. Good Luck!

    We unexpectedly loved the visit to Mihintale, and recommend that. The Ancient city of Anuradhapura was vast; I think we only saw the highlights. If you're a history buff, you would definitely need at least2 or more days.

    Absolutely outstanding location!! Very close to the sacred city, temples and other attractions. Very well planned landscapes, clean and comfortable modern rooms that provide closeness to the nature - you will wake up to the singing of birds!! Nice pool overlooking the paddy fields that has a relaxing vibe to end the day with. Friendly and helpful staff, great food and nice rooftop views of the tanks and stupas! All in all, a fantastic place that I will recommend to all my friends traveling to Sri Lanka and the ancient city of Anuradhapura.

    Super spacious apartment with a kitchen, living room and the two rooms with AC. The owner was very kind and attentive, giving us a lot of information on what to visit and when, where to dine, and gave us a lot of nice insights into the history and the culture of the area. Breakfast was plentiful, simple, but great. Overall Prestiva Stay is such a nice example of the renowned hospitality of Sri Lanka, we highly recommend to stay here when visiting Anuradhapura!
