Where to buy safe bottled water in Anuradhapura.

You can easily buy perfectly safe, factory sealed bottled water at any of the massive Cargills Food City or Keells supermarkets located in the new Anuradhapura town center. To be absolutely cautious while exploring the hot archaeological park, avoid buying water from tiny, random street carts near the stupas where the bottles might have been sitting in the direct sun for days, and always check that the plastic safety ring on the cap is completely intact before drinking.
