Höjdpunkter

Pidurangala is a Rock Temple with a cave complex. The history goes back to 5th Century BC to King Kashyapa's period (477-195 AD). There are so many ancient ruins in and around the main rock. I will explain to you about the historical background of the Pidurangala Temple which was the main temple at that time. During the climb we can observe cave dwellings which were used by the Buddhist monks in ancient times to stay. Currently there are few caves with proper walls which are used by meditating monks. I will show you our advanced technology used by the ancient workers to form caves and about tool technology.

About Sigiriya

Sigiriya is a village in Sri Lanka's dry central plains, dominated by a huge rock fortress with palace ruins, frescoes and gardens.

Sigiriya Rock rises almost two hundred metres out of the forest plain. In the fifth century King Kashyapa built a palace on top and a city around it, and it is now a UNESCO World Heritage site. The climb passes the Mirror Wall, a polished surface scratched with ancient verses, frescoes of women in a sheltered pocket of the cliff, and a gateway shaped like the paws of a lion. Water gardens and boulder gardens lie at the foot.

Top-ranked sights in Sigiriya: Sigiriya Rock Fortress, Dambulla Cave Temple (Golden Temple of Dambulla).
