Great experience in Anuradhapura - Anuradhapura is worth visiting!! It was a bit far away from the other sites so it was difficult to plan to go the by myself. However, Apple vacation helped for me to travel as I wanted. Thanks to them, I travelled safely and got a lot of knowledge. Thank you very much:)
