A spot that you think you know but don't know✨ The view from the top of Sigiriya Rock is beautiful, but if you climb it because of a blind spot, you can't see Sigiriya Rock itself! But Pidurangala has a cheap entrance fee, and although it's a 30-minute walk on a rough path, the view is spectacular🥹✨It's a great spot if you want to see Sigiriya Rock from the outside! There were hardly any people there compared to Sigiriya! We wanted to see the sunset, so we went at sunset time! The view was so spectacular that it was mesmerizing~😊 ⚠️Things to be aware of before you goThe ground is quite rough, so comfortable clothes and shoes are a must☝🏽Skirts, dresses, and flip-flops are not recommended!! ! #overseastravel #srilanka #greatview #0yentravelautumn

The ancient city of Sigiriya and Dambulla cave temple are two of the eight UNESCO world heritage sites in Sri Lanka that you should not miss if you visit Sri Lanka. The two sites are just 20 km apart so it is possible to visit both attractions within the same day. However, I recommend spending at least a few days to explore these sites at a more leisurely pace. Check out the three-day itinerary below! Day 1: Arrive at Colombo International Airport Ratmalana. Rest for a night in Negombo. Day 2: Travel to Sigiriya. Visit Dambulla Cave Temple on the way to Sigiriya. The most convenient way to reach Sigiriya is by hiring a private car. The cheapest way is by taking local buses. We took 2 different local buses from Negombo and got off at Dambulla. It was fun albeit slightly inconvenient as we got to experience it the local way. From Dambulla you can either take a public bus or hire a tuk-tuk to Sigiriya. Day 3: Visit Sigiriya Lion Rock early in the morning. Hire a jeep ride to Minneriya National Park in the afternoon. [Must-Visit Attractions] 1. Sigiriya Lion Rock: An ancient fortress built on top of a rock column 2. Dambulla Cave Temple: The largest and best-preserved cave temple complex in the island 3. Minneriya National Park: Within an hour drive from Sigiriya, the park houses hundreds of Asian elephants which thrive on the Minneriya Tank. [Must-Try Food] There are plenty of roadside restaurants along Sigiriya Road and Hotel Road. Some of them offer a good view of the Sigiriya Lion Rock. 1. Hotel Sigiriya serves good buffet dinner. 2. Sigiriya Wew Thawulla Restaurant offers amazing views of the Lion Rock. 3. Sigiriya Lion Face serves good kattu with a stunning view of Lion Rock as a backdrop. [Accommodation ] We stayed in Hotel Sigiriya 2 km away from the entrance of Sigiriya Lion Rock with amazing views of the Lion Rock from the outdoor pool area. 📍 Hotel Sigiriya Hotel Road, Sigiriya, Sigiriya, Sri Lanka [Photo Spots] 1. Outdoor pool area of Hotel Sigiriya offers clear views of the Lion Rock. There is even a telescope by the pool for us to get a better view of the rock! 2. The journey to the top of the Lion Rock offers amazing views along the way. 3. Take pictures of the Lion Rock near the site entrance before the ascent to capture the full view of the rock. [Tips] 1. Dambulla Cave Temple: Before entering the temple we had to remove our shoes so wearing socks is recommended. Remember to wear modest clothing that covers your knee and shoulder while visiting sacred sites. There are lots of street sellers outside the temple selling sarong. It is also possible to rent a sarong to cover your knees before entering the temple. 2. Sigiriya Lion Rock: Be prepared to have a workout while visiting the Lion Rock as there are around 1200 steps of stairs to climb throughout the visit. Wear comfortable shoes! #100WaysOfTravel #srilanka #sigiriya #dambulla #unesco #cave #temple #lionrock #minneriya #worldheritage #tripblazers

Sigiriya is the MOST iconic and beautiful site in the country of Sri Lanka! It represents the intricacies of the Sinhalese history and it dated back to thousands of years ago! For travelers, getting there is fairly easy! Getting There - Take the bus from Kandy or Colombo to Dambulla. From Dambulla you could take a 20 minute tuktuk to Sigiriya or take a bus which would roughly take 45 minutes. Most accommodations are very close to Sigiriya and are at walkable distance! Attractions - Pirundagala is a good viewpoint rock while Sigiriya Archeological site allows you to be exploring the history on the rock! Hotels - Senehas Homestay was very hospitable and of good value! Food & Restaurants - make sure you try string hoppers in the area! The area is full of touristy restaurants with cuisine ranging from international, italian to local Sri Lankan delicacies!

We had a wonderful stay in Hotel Sigiriya during our visit to the Sigiriya Rock Fortress, the most iconic landmark in Sri Lanka. The hotel is 2 km away from the entrance of Sigiriya Rock, which is also known as the Lion Rock. We were welcomed with amazing views of the Lion Rock the moment we set foot in the hotel. The rock could be seen clearly from the outdoor pool area and we could even see the visitors on the rock using the telescope provided! Our hotel room was clean and spacious. There were French doors leading to patio with sitting areas. Our stay included buffet dinner served in the open-aired restaurant in the hotel. The hotel was very accommodative to our request to provide takeaway breakfast as we needed to leave before breakfast time to climb the Lion Rock.

Sri Lanka's Sky Palace was listed as a World Heritage Site as early as 1982. Looking from the bottom up, it feels very spectacular. After actually climbing to the top, I have to admire the uncanny workmanship designed by the people at that time. It is really amazing to have a bird's-eye view of the entire Sri Lankan scenery from a high place. People keep coming back! #Srilanka # Lion Rock # SigiriyaRock # Sky Palace

#sigiriya #srilanka

yeay!! im so close to this huge-mammoth-gigantic rock that i’ve been eyeing since i saw a video clip of Duran Duran. it’s just amazing to witness human imagination harmonizes with the nature (the rock was formed from magma of an extinct volcano & reaches 200m high. when King Kashyapa transfomed this rock into his palace, fortress, garden & ultimately his administrative capital during his reign (477 – 495 AD), it has becoming a magnificent legacy during his time i am still amazed when i picture themassive construction of the city on top of the rock. how do these people drag all the building materials to the top? it must be hard time and tiring. #sigiriya #lionrock #srilanka

pidurangala rock has a nice view when we travel early in The morning we can see sunshine there #hiking#unforgettableexperiences

As someone who lives in a bustling city, there's no better escape than to somewhere as full of nature as Sigiriya, Sri Lanka. Get up for the pre-sunrise motorbike ride through the hills to the peak and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the sounds of animals getting ready for the day. A quick jaunt up the adjacent mountain and you’ll find yourself with a front-row seat to one of the worlds hidden gems. Head back down and it’s an easy motorbike ride around town to find some relaxing shade. Then, it’s back up up to climb the Sigiriya peak and watch the sunset. Just watch out for those pesky monkeys as they like to steal your stuff. 10/10 would do again.

Below is a summary of my trip to Sri Lanka from February 16th to 27th, 2025. Why Sri Lanka? Visa-free entry was my top priority when choosing a travel destination after the pandemic, and Sri Lanka offered just that. Online reviews of Sri Lanka are polarized, with roughly half praising it and half finding it underwhelming. Years ago, an article titled "Chinese Tourists, You Look Stupid Being Fooled by Travel Guides" criticized the disparity between the reality of traveling in Sri Lanka and what's portrayed in guides. This intrigued me. I've traveled to both developed and developing countries, and I've never found a single one uninteresting! Given the divided opinions, I decided to carefully plan our Sri Lanka trip to ensure it was visually appealing, fun, delicious, and comfortable. In my opinion, Sri Lanka doesn't have top-tier natural scenery, world-class cultural attractions, or wildlife comparable to Africa. Its beaches, in terms of water quality, aren't even up to par. However, it's still just as enjoyable as any other country! As long as you know what kind of trip you want, traveling anywhere in the world can be fun. The Earth's mountains, rivers, lakes, bays, glaciers, grasslands, deserts, and animals are incredibly diverse, and human cultures vary immensely. With so much novelty and the unknown to explore, how can it not be fun if you have enough curiosity?! Sri Lanka is a classic example of "small but mighty." While it may not excel in any single area, its diverse offerings combine to create a rich and colorful travel experience. Of course, this depends on individual choices. When travel revolves around interests rather than just attractions, and you're flexible and willing to let go of certain sights or activities, even a country like Sri Lanka, which doesn't seem to stand out in any particular aspect, can be a fantastic place to explore. My interests: ancient ruins with a sense of history and beauty, beautiful accommodations immersed in nature, artistic spots (cafes, accommodations, attractions), and novel and fun activities (the more primitive, the better). My companion Lao Dong's interests: experiencing the vibrancy of local markets and enjoying Sri Lankan crabs and various seafood. My female companion's interests: enjoying high-quality and elegant services, including hotels, breakfasts, beautiful shops, and taking beautiful photos. Therefore, I chose the following: **Ancient ruins with a sense of history and beauty:** Yapahuwa Rock, Polonnaruwa Ancient City, and Sigiriya Rock, all World Heritage sites. The first two are, in my opinion, the most beautiful ancient sites in Sri Lanka, while the latter is a national symbol. **Beautiful accommodations immersed in nature:** Heritance Kandalama **Artistic spots:** luxury guesthouses and cafes in Ahangama, the Nine Arch Bridge in Ella, and the train journey along the coast from Colombo. **Novel and fun experiences and activities:** semi-outdoor accommodation at a banyan tree campsite, birdwatching on a lake safari, floating dinner on the lake and stargazing – a unique and primitive accommodation experience. We saw thirty or forty Sri Lankan elephants on safari at Hurulu Eco Park. I tried surfing for the first time in Ahangama and wore a sari for the first time at the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy. **Markets:** Negombo Fish Market and Galle Fish Market for buying crabs, prawns, and fish. **Food:** Crab curry at a famous restaurant in Colombo, seafood restaurants in Galle Fort, and cooking Chinese food with Sri Lankan crabs at our guesthouse. Thanks to the top-quality seafood, the food aspect of our Sri Lanka trip was satisfying. This trip also had its share of exciting stories. My companion drove a right-hand drive car for the first time and needed to adjust. On the second day, he bumped into a car's headlight and paid a small amount to settle the matter. On the fourth day, our parked car occupied a tuk-tuk's parking space, and our tires were deflated. Later, we met a super-friendly car repair shop owner who helped us realize it was a false alarm. On the last day, we had a minor collision with a tuk-tuk by the sea and, after some bargaining, paid a small amount to resolve the issue. Driving here requires the skills of a Chongqing taxi driver from the past to navigate the chaotic traffic. We arrived at a manor-like guesthouse on the first night in darkness, and it felt a bit eerie. However, the warm and attentive service from the housekeeper the next day completely changed our impression. This 180-degree turnaround is an experience I'll likely remember clearly even ten years from now. Sri Lankans aren't as innocent as they're sometimes portrayed, and some can even appear intimidating. I suspect this is due to the country's financial collapse and hardship during the pandemic. Poverty has led to an increase in scams targeting foreign tourists. But looking back, their wrongdoings were minor. The majority of the people in this country are friendly, smiling, and enjoy taking photos, leaving a lasting positive impression on me.
