Unveil Luxury Ceylon

- After breakfast, climb the 5th century Sigiriya rock fortress which is a world heritage site, built by King Kashyapa (477-495 AD).
- The ‘Lion Rock’ is a citadel of unusual beauty rising 200 meters from the scrub jungle. The rock was the innermost stronghold of the 70 hectare fortified town.
- A moat, rampart, and extensive gardens including the renowned water gardens ring the base of the rock.
- Visit the world-renowned frescoes of the ‘Heavenly Maidens’ of Sigiriya, which are in a sheltered pocket of the rock approached by a spiral stairway. These frescoes are painted in earth pigments on plaster.
- After, visit the elephant orphanage to bathe elephants. With lots of one-on-one time spent with the most amazing creatures that call Sri Lanka home, this is a trip that will never be forgotten. There are about 300 tamed elephants in the nation, and temples are actively pushing for additional elephants from organizations like the Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage.Return to your hotel for overnight stay.
