Exploring the Aukana Buddha statue was a highlight of our day, standing tall and serene amidst the lush landscape. The journey through Anuradhapura was fascinating, filled with ancient ruins that spark curiosity about Sri Lanka’s rich history. One small drawback was that the tour felt a bit rushed at times, leaving us wanting more time to soak in the sights.

Our family had a wonderful time visiting the ancient sites around Habarana, particularly enjoying the stunning Aukana Buddha statue. The transportation was comfortable, making the journey between attractions smooth, though we wished there had been a bit more time at Anuradhapura to fully explore its remarkable history. Overall, this experience was engaging and offered a lovely balance of culture and scenery, making it a memorable part of our trip.
