Sigiriya
28 October 2007


Our Wattegama children enjoyed a fun and educational day-trip to Sigiriya, one of the most important and scenic archeological and historical sites in Sri Lanka. Geologically, Sigiriya is a massive, flat-topped rock rising high out of the jungle treetops in central Sri Lanka. Historically and archeologically, it's flat top was a citadel and seat of ancient Sinhala King Kasyapa (477-495 AD). The incredible views serve as the backdrop to the ruins of the ancient city.
