The ancient city, considered sacred to the Buddhist world, is today surrounded by monasteries covering an area of over 40 km². The Sandahiru Seya ("Triumphant Pagoda") is a huge new stupa rising on the south side of Anuradhapura, two thousand years after the first of the great dagobas was constructed.
Anuradhapura was the capital of all the monarchs who ruled the country in the Anuradhapura kingdom, with the exception of Kashyapa I (473–491), who chose Sigiriya to be his capital. [12] The city is also marked on Ptolemy's world map. [13]
