Hotels in Anuradhapura District, Sri Lanka

Anuradhapura District is in Sri Lanka's North Central Province, famous for its ancient Buddhist ruins and sacred Sri Maha Bodhi tree, a 2,300-year-old fig tree grown from a branch of the original Bodhi tree. The climate is hot year-round, averaging 86°F (30°C), with a dry season from May to September perfect for exploring the sprawling ruins of the ancient kingdom like Abhayagiri Dagoba on bicycle, and a rainy season from October to January when you can visit the Isurumuniya rock temple with fewer crowds and lower hotel rates.
