Here are a few photos I took at the Sigiriya World Heritage Site. This is the capital of King Kasyapa (477 – 495 CE). He built his palace on the top of this rock which is more than 200m high.

This place is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Sri Lanka. According to my knowledge, this place has the most number of photo uploads in Google Maps in Sri Lanka.
