Sigiriya is an exceptional natural sight for a fortress, vast flat- topped 200m high Lion Rock dominates the surrounding countryside of the central forest and from the top offers views that stretch as for as the day zone and south to the central highlands. For many visitors this impressive sight is their favorite in the whole of Sri Lanka. The rewards of Sigiriya, with its palace, famous frescoes and beautiful under gardens, justify the steep climb.
