Sri Lanka’s first royal capital by bicycle, with a specialist archaeology guide. The Sri Maha Bodhi Tree – the oldest documented living tree on earth, planted in 288 BC – the Ruwanwelisaya Dagoba, the Jetavanaramaya, the Isurumuniya rock temple. All of it at the pace a bicycle gives you, with a guide who makes 2,500 years of history feel like a narrative rather than a monument checklist.
