Sigiriya Lion Rock Guided Tour

The story of Sigiriya is as ancient, as it is tragic; a monument that during its zenith, was the Capital of a thriving and powerful kingdom, which eventually succumbed to indulgence and depravity. For over a millennium after the rise and fall of the kingdom, the great rock and its fortress remained isolated, leaving the fantastic architecture and artwork immaculately preserved. Today, the area which is easily accessible offers a veritable treasure trove of historic, cultural and exoteric delights, shedding light on the island’s fascinating and somewhat turbulent past.
