A view of Ulagalla by Uga Escapes, a stay in Anuradhapura

Ulagalla by Uga Escapes

Ulagalla by Uga Escapes is a five star boutique resort in the Anuradhapura district, set on 58 acres of land surrounded by paddy fields and orchards. The open countryside gives wide views, and the resort's villas are spread out for privacy, making it one of the most peaceful bases for exploring the ancient capital.
