SIGIRIYA
Sigiriya is a very famous place in Sri Lanaka. Known as 'LION ROCK'. It is a large, tall rock that rises about 200 meters above the ground. Long ago, a king named Kashyapa built a place on top of this rock. The name 'SIGIRIYA' comes from the big lion statue that was once at the entrance of the place. Even though the statue is gone now, you can still see the lion's paws, which are very big and carved into the rock. Once of the most interesting parts of Sigiriya is the paintings, or frescoes, on the rock. These paintings show women holding flowers. Sigiriya is special not just because of its beauty, but also because of how it was built. Visitors today can climb the rock to see the rules of the place and enjoy the amazing view from the top. πͺπ«
