രാവണൻകോട്ട ശ്രീലങ്ക | SIGIRIYA FORT SRILANKA

Ancient City of Sigiriya The ruins of the capital built by the parricidal King Kasyapa I (477–95) lie on the steep slopes and at the summit of a granite peak standing some 180m high (the 'Lion's Rock', which dominates the jungle from all sides). A series of galleries and staircases emerging from the mouth of a gigantic lion constructed of bricks and plaster provide access to the site.The Sinhalese king Kashyapa I (reigned 477–495) built a palace in the shape of a monumental lion on the several acres of ground at the summit, intending it to be a safeguard against his enemies. However, the king was defeated in 495, and the palace fell into ruin. The site soon became a pilgrimage destination, however, and it is now a popular tourist spot. Visitors begin the final ascent to the top through the open paws of the lion, one of the few remaining portions of the palace that are still intact. Also notable are 21 rock paintings of apsaras (celestial singers and dancers). Sigiriya was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1982. The best way to reach Sigiriya from Colombo is by train and will cost you between LKR 800-1,200. It is an hour and 33 minutes from Colombo. However, there are no direct trains to Sigiriya. The best option is to board the train from Colombo Fort to Habrana, which is 15 km away. subscribe our channel :   / dipuviswanathan   facebook page :  / dipu-viswanathan-2242364562686929   instagram :  / dipuviswanathan   If you like our video please feel free to subscribe our channel for future updates and write your valuable comments below in the comment .. if you wish to feature your temple and other historical places in our channe you can inform the details to : 8075434838
