Cultural Triangle Trips & Tours

If a good dose of history and the promise of a temple or two or three makes your heart race, then Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle was made for you. Home to no less than five of the country’s seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites, all no more than 4-hours’ drive apart, the Cultural Triangle is a cornucopia of history, culture and spirituality. In geographical terms, Kandy forms the southern point of the triangle, whilst tongue-twisting Anuradhapura is the northern point and Polonnaruwa, the eastern. The Dambulla rock cave temple complex and star-of-the-show Sirigiya sit in the central part, close to Minneryia National Park. All over, the landscape is almost otherworldly and dense jungle, teeming with herbs and meditation caves, stretches as far as the eye can see, speckled with the jaw-droppingly magnificent treasures from Sri Lanka’s past. Magical.
