Sigiriya Rock Fortress is considered
as one of the world heritages nominated
by UNESCO. It is located in the Central
Province of Sri Lanka. This fortress
was built by King Kashyapa. He built
his palace on the top of this rock and
decorated its sides with colourful
frescoes. It is nearly 100 metres high. One
could see the Lion Gate, the Mirror Wall,
landscaped gardens, water gardens and
caves in Sigiriya. The fountains are still
active during the rainy season. It is one of
the best preserved examples of ancient urban
planning and is the most visited historic site
in Sri Lanka. It’s our duty to protect this
ancient monumen.
