    2 h

  2. The Pidurangala monastery was built by King Kashyapa, who built Sigiriya in the 5th Century and is known as a location where was facilitated accommodation for five hundred mediation Bhikkus. Even though Pidurangala is located just away from Sigiriya, this site does not renovate adequately.

About Colombo

Colombo is Sri Lanka's largest city and commercial capital, where colonial landmarks, Buddhist temples, busy markets and a seafront promenade meet.

Galle Face Green, a long seafront lawn, fills with families, kite flyers and street-food stalls as the sun sets over the Indian Ocean. Nearby, the Fort district keeps colonial buildings such as the Old Dutch Hospital, restored as shops and restaurants, and the red-and-white striped Jami Ul-Alfar Mosque rises over the crowded market streets of Pettah.

Top-ranked sights in Colombo: Gangaramaya Temple, Galle Face Green, Independence Square.
