This is so beautiful.... Never seen Sri Lanka this beautifully.... Keep up guys it’s just amazing!!!

[@Sheneller]

Thanks alot!!

[@sndni]

Love the video Shenelle. So informative! Reminds me of the good old times when I visited my great grandmother every year (she passed away very recently and I haven’t been there ever since) She lived in a small village a bit further from A’pura town and we used to look forward to bathing in rivers, taking walks around the village paddy’s fields and worshipping Sri Maha Bodhiya with her! Thank you Shenelle & Shehan for taking me back there💗 Really can’t choose between the sunset kayak ride and the little journey to the Ritigala monastery (also the little picnic there!) but I am really excited to try all of it with the +1 at Ulagalla! Also, can’t wait to see the next video of you guys💗

[@user-kr9kd9nx9k]

Oh! My God, what a beautiful skin color! Honestly, I need to visit Sri Lanka just to see this kind of color.

[@lenuthuduhena6034]

This is one enchanting expedition, certainly not another usual travel vlog. This is the inspiration, the unique outlook Sri Lanka needs. Every little detail highlighted to perfection. Absolutely loved it, keep it up guys 💗💗

[@Sheneller]

Thank you so much Lenu! ❤️

[@balarigabadamudalige6599]

Been to Anuradhapura a million times but this is out of this world!!😍 Kayaking looks like it’s a must try!

[@tharushisenevirathne4072]

MORNING KAYAKING FOR SURE! Bless you and Shehan for making such beautiful videos 💕

[@spoongipamzi]

I would love to do all of these! So far my favorite is to try the horseback riding, kayaking and to have a walk around the ruins of ancient city! Horseback riding reminds me about our rich history & culture what we learned as kids back in school, love everything about this city.

[@ranjitcrofton6369]

Great Video guys! I am Srilankan and had been to Anuradhapura probably thirty years ago several times but this place made me like living in heaven on earth.

[@naveeweenu84]

This is truly amazing....The editing and colors are on point. Love your shooting style! Keep up with the great work👍👍

[@jananijayasinghe3112]

What an amazing vlog! Between the horse riding and the picnics and dinner by the paddy fields I think I’d want to experience them all! But I think that kayak ride would have to be the winner, it looked so serene and magical ✨
