Sigiriya
When
talk about the places, Sigiriya is a marvelous place to visit in Sri Lanka. Before
two years ago I visited that place with my friends. I read a book which was
written about the places in Sri Lanka, author described about the Sigiriya nicely, due to that interest I visited Sigiriya. It was the kingdom of king Kasyapa
in earliest time. Sigiriya is famous due to its archaeological plan and
features. Such as Frescoes, The mirror wall, Water gardens, Ponds, etc. Sigiriya frescoes are similar to Ajantha Caves' frescoes. I always
tell, Sigiriya is the best place that I have ever visited in Sri Lanka.
I
posted some photographs of Sigiriya here.

ReplyDeleteI only heard about Sigiriya and seen only at one time when I am climbing 'Rosa Thirivana Kanda'. It is a very beautiful and valuable place because we can imagine the strength of Sri Lankans when we are visiting this place.
Sigiriya is very popular due to the technology that have used to draw pictures in the "Mirror Wall" and the architecture that has used when building the kingdom.
ReplyDeletesigiriya is most beautiful place in the Sri Lanka, It's water system is amazing for every one. How is the water pumped for peak of Sigiriya that is the qestion in my mind . I think good technology is there.
ReplyDeleteSigiriya is located within the cultural triangle formed by Polonnaruwa, Anuradhapura, and Kandy, which includes five of the eight world heritage sites in past. It is a place which can be showed pride of Sri Lanka.

ReplyDeletesigiriya is a valuable and historical place in our country. Garden of sigiriya is very attractive.The Gardens of the Sigiriya city are one of the most important aspects of the site, as it is among the oldest landscaped gardens in the world. The gardens are divided into three distinct but linked forms: water gardens, cave and boulder gardens, and terraced gardens
