Sigiriya The Ancient Rock FortressSigiriya Rock Fortress that dominates the Sigiriya area was the capital of the King Kasyapa who ruled in the 5th century AD. The rock was once shaped into the shape of a lion, hence gaining its name. Now only the giant paws remain at the entrance to the climb up the rock. You can get to see the gardens and advanced irrigation systems that Kasyapa had built in his fortress. To this day the ponds remain full of water (though it is no longer as clean), and the remains of the walls and moats of his fortress can be seen. However the most marvelous aspect of Sigiriya, that brought it international fame, is the unfading rock paintings that continue to confuse many experts. Despite being over a millennia old the colors and shapes remain clear and bright as if they were newly painted. Once you return to the base from your climb up the rock, you can also visit the Sigiriya Museum which has some excellent pieces.

Each cave holds its unique charm, with elaborate frescoes depicting scenes from Buddha's life and various deities from both Buddhist and Hindu traditions. The temple, also known as the Golden Temple of Dambulla, stands as a testament to Sri Lanka's rich cultural heritage and religious devotion, attracting pilgrims and tourists alike from across the globe. Its serene ambiance, coupled with the spiritual aura, makes it a captivating destination for those seeking solace, enlightenment, and a glimpse into Sri Lanka's ancient past.
