Itinerario

1. Early morning leave for Sigiriya (approx. 4 hours drive) and climb the 5th-century Sigiriya rock fortress. Sigiriya, where the King Kasyapa ruled. Walk through the entrance framed by the paws of a lion that is quite appropriate for its name, ' the Lion Rock'. View the beautiful unfading murals that brought Sigiriya its fame. Climb the steep staircase to see the terraced gardens and still-working cisterns. Walk through the tunnels leading to the palace as you get a feel for times long past.

   3 h

2. Enter the historic caves of the Golden Temple of Dambulla, dating back to the 1st century BC. View the ancient murals depicting the life story of Lord Gautama Buddha. Look at the hundreds of figurines of Buddha and other deities scattered throughout the five main caves. Visit the Cave of the Divine King, Cave of the Great King and the Great New Monastery. See the giant golden Buddha Statue just a little distance outside the cave complex. On completion of this visit, you will be driven back to your hotel (approx. 4 hours drive)

About Colombo

Colombo, la più grande città dello Sri Lanka e capitale commerciale, riunisce edifici coloniali, templi buddhisti, mercati animati e lungomare.

Galle Face Green, un lungo prato sul mare, si riempie di famiglie, aquilonisti e bancarelle di cibo di strada quando il sole tramonta sull'Oceano Indiano. Nelle vicinanze, il distretto del Forte conserva edifici coloniali come il Vecchio Ospedale Olandese, restaurato come negozi e ristoranti, e la moschea Jami Ul-Alfar a strisce rosse e bianche si innalza sulle affollate vie del mercato di Pettah.

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