    Early morning leave for Sigiriya (approx. 5 hours drive) and climb the 5th-century Sigiriya rock fortress.

    After lunch, visit Dambulla rock temple that was built by King Walagambahu in the 1st century B.C. and it is a World Heritage Site. It is the most impressive of Sri Lanka's cave temples. The complex of five caves with over 2000 sq. meters of painted walls and ceilings, is the largest area of paintings found in the world.
