Negombo / Sigiriya

Sigiriya The Ancient Rock Fortress - Sigiriya, also known as Sinhagiri, is an ancient rock fortress in the northern Matale District near Dambulla in Sri Lanka’s Central Province. The site, of historical and archaeological importance, is dominated by a massive rock column nearly 200 meters (660 ft) high. According to the ancient Sri Lankan chronicle, the Chulavamsa, King Kashyapa (477 – 495 AD) chose this site for his new capital. He constructed his palace atop the rock and adorned its sides with vibrant frescoes. Halfway up, he built a gateway shaped like a giant lion. After the king’s death, the capital and palace were abandoned and later used as a Buddhist monastery until the 14th century. Today, Sigiriya is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a prime example of ancient urban planning.

Bhikkhus from the Malwatte and Asgiriya chapters conduct daily worship in the temple’s inner chamber, with rituals performed three times daily: at dawn, noon, and evening.
