  • 75 Places in 17 Days Mega Tour – Day 1

Our son in Grade 1 & he getting long vacation in August. That means we were free from normal routine work. Then we decided to arrange a trip. We thought arrange a long trip. It will easy for us to visit many places & visit all relatives’ houses in one trip. On 30th June morning we went to Anuradhapura. But on that moment also we don’t have any fix plan. But one thing , I knew that this will be more than 10 days trip. We were unable to take any family member / friend because no one willing to join such long & without fix schedule trip.  My main target was visit many important places as much we can. On the way we went to Ridee Viharaya , Rambadagalla Viharaya , Yapahuwa  , Hasthikucchi Ruins & Res Vehera. After visiting above places we changed or plan & went to relative’s house in Kalankuttiya. We stay there 2 nights & start our journey from there. Pls read the next Trip Report to find details from Day 3 onwards.
