Sigiriya
Sigiriya — the Lion Rock — is Sri Lanka's most iconic landmark and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This ancient rock fortress rises nearly 200 metres from the surrounding plains, topped with the ruins of a 5th-century palace. The climb reveals breathtaking frescoes of celestial maidens, the famous mirror wall, and panoramic views that stretch to the horizon.
