Visit the Sigiriya Rock Fortress.

Sigiriya Rock Fortress is UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most dramatic,
inspiring and beautiful historical locations in the world. A mythical past of feuding
dynasties suits Sigiriya’s striking setting- it was built in 5th century AD by king,
Kasyapa, as a fortress-palace. The palace complex at the foot of the rock still has the
remains of four indoor swimming pools where the king’s 500 concubines bathed.
The palace structure was built with complex water arteries in the walls that
provided natural air conditioning in the hot climate. On the summit, reached with
the help of metal staircases and ladders, you can see the remains of the palace walls,
gardens and ponds.

The mirror walls of the Sigiriya rock still retain the world-famous frescoes of the
king’s concubines, who originated from all parts of the world.
