Hello, I'm Perly, a local tour guide in the ancient ruins of Polonnaruwa.

History has always fascinated me. I have spent years studying the history, culture and stories of this ancient city, exploring its temples, royal palaces, statues and carvings.

During my tours, I don't just show monuments – I share the stories behind them: the lives of kings, monks and artisans who created this remarkable city, and the traditions that have survived for centuries.

Join me and discover Polonnaruwa through the stories hidden in its ancient stones, sculptures and paths. Together, we will step back in time and experience the legacy of medieval Sri Lanka.
