Itinerário

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, a maior cidade e capital comercial do Sri Lanka, reúne edifícios coloniais, templos budistas, mercados animados e um passeio marítimo.

Galle Face Green, um longo relvado à beira-mar, enche-se de famílias, pessoas a fazer voar papagaios e bancas de comida de rua quando o sol se põe sobre o Oceano Índico. Perto, o distrito do Forte conserva edifícios coloniais como o antigo Hospital Holandês, restaurado como lojas e restaurantes, e a mesquita Jami Ul-Alfar, de riscas vermelhas e brancas, ergue-se sobre as apinhadas ruas comerciais de Pettah.

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