About Sigiriya
Discover the ancient marvel of Sigiriya, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Sri Lanka’s most iconic landmarks. Rising nearly 200 meters above the jungle, this colossal rock fortress was once a royal palace and stronghold of King Kashyapa in the 5th century.
Climb the majestic Lion Rock through ancient staircases flanked by giant lion paws, and explore its frescoes, mirror wall, and beautifully landscaped water gardens — some of the oldest in the world. At the summit, take in 360° panoramic views of lush forests, villages, and distant mountains.
Whether you're a history enthusiast, nature lover, or adventurer, Sigiriya offers a perfect blend of cultural heritage, breathtaking scenery, and architectural brilliance.
