• Sigiriya: The Ancient Rock Fortress - Emerging from the central plains, the iconic rocky formation of Sigiriya is arguably Sri Lanka’s most striking landmark. Its nearly vertical walls rise to a flat-topped summit, housing the remnants of an ancient civilization, believed to have been the heart of the brief kingdom of Kassapa. The early morning offers enchanting views over mist-covered forests. Ascend the 5th-century AD rock fortress, Sigiriya, where King Kasyapa once reigned. Enter through the lion’s paws, fitting for its name, ‘the Lion Rock.’ Admire the stunning, enduring murals that have made Sigiriya famous. Climb the steep staircase to explore the terraced gardens and functioning cisterns. Wander through the tunnels leading to the palace, experiencing a sense of history.
