Sigiriya

Adventure Holidays to Sigiriya

The ancient city of Sigiriya is made up of the ruins of the 5th Century King Kasyapa. While the ruins will arouse your archaeological interest with its superb water gardens and paintings, it’s the location which is truly incredible here.

Lion Mountain is a vast 200m high rock that juts up out of the middle of a plain. Getting up there now is tricky enough with its steep steps and gangways; building a huge fort up there must have been near impossible. From the top there are simply breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.
