Sigiriya is world famous for its frescoes. Although King Kasyapa is regarded as a patricide, he was a lover of art.That's why he had created such a beautiful fortress with attractive paintings of beautiful ladies. Foreign tourists who come to Sri lanka never fail to visit Sigiriya .It is a place of Historical value. As well as we can see the graffiti or verses on the mirror wall.These verses had been written by the ancient visitors.These verses helps us to earn about the evolution and development of our language.There are nearly such 700 verses on this mirror wall.

Sigiriya consists of technology that still we can't understand. A wonder of Sri Lanka.

Sigiriya was built by King Kasyapa

I still believe, that technology is far beyond him!!!
