Sigiriya The Ancient Rock Fortress
Rising dramatically from the central plains, the enigmatic rocky outcrop of Sigiriya is perhaps Sri Lanka's single most dramatic sight. Near-vertical walls soar to a flat-topped summit that contains the ruins of an ancient civilisation, thought to be once the epicentre of the short-lived kingdom of Kassapa, and there are spellbinding vistas across mist-wrapped forests in the early morning.

Day 2
Sigiriya Village Tour
1 stop
7
Sigiriya
Go for a genuine town stroll through the provincial rustic network of Sigiriya and Habarana joined by a specialist manage. It's not simply a walk just but rather a bona fide experience with the nearby town society; encountering their ways of life, their way of life and their neighborliness. By valid we mean it's a genuine town situation, not one set up as a vacation destination. Since the two towns are dominatingly agribusiness based, there is adequate chance to encounter customary rice fields, vegetable cultivating, development of local yams and different yields, poultry keeping, honey bee keeping and substantially more. It's an unadulterated communication with the children of the dirt who laboure with the great earth to win a living.
