Sigiriya

3 Days

The ancient fortress of Sigiriya lies on top of a giant granite rock in the North Central Province of

Sri Lanka. 180 metres in height, climbing Sigiriya Rock, tops the to-do-list in the region.

Recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Sigiriya is one of the most extraordinary fortress

palaces in the world. Originally used by Buddhist monks as a monastery, the Sigiriya Rock

became a fortress, once King Kashyapa, fearing vengeance by the rightful heir to the kingdom,

chose to build his palace at the summit making it his capital.

The Rock itself is visually stunning with steep sides and flat summit, standing amidst the jungles

surrounding it. The palace built during the 5th century, sitting atop the rock is an engineering

marvel of the era. The ingenuity and creativity used in the designs and construction is

spectacular.
