Sigiriya, or the 'Lion Rock' is most famous for its frescoes, a series of 'heavenly maidens' painted on the rock surface itself. From halfway up the rock you can witness the elaborately landscaped water gardens containing the royal baths and fountains, some of which still work today during the rainy seasons. Sigiriya is a still standing monument to Kashyapa, and the vision of a truly egotistical monarch.
