Cultural Triangle
Sigiriya
The rock, the frescoes and the cities around it.
A 200-metre granite plug carrying the ruins of a fifth-century sky palace, and the best sunrise climb in Sri Lanka.
Every route we run through the cultural triangle passes Sigiriya, and the question is never whether to include it but how many nights it earns. Our answer is 2 nights — enough to see it at the hour it is worth seeing and still leave in daylight.
Tell a consultant which month you are coming and they will say plainly whether this is the right place for it, or whether the same days are better spent on the other coast.
