A brief note on Sigiriya

Image
Sigiriya is located in the central province Sri Lanka.💓 It is a rock fortress, built by king Kashyapa during 5th century.

Sigiriya is a UNESCO listed world heritage site today. It is also considered as 8th world wonder. 😄I live in the Matale district. I will mention some of the feature we can see in Sigiriya rock.😊😊😊 The royal palace on the rock. Sigiri womens with images of a lion made of bricks.

The ruins of the royal palace on top of that can still be seen today. ...
