Sigiriya💚


 


​Located in the Matale District of Sri Lanka, Sigiriya is one of the most proud and magnificent historical heritages of our country. Built in the 5th century by King Kashyapa as his fortress and royal palace, this marvelous creation stands atop a massive rock nearly 600 feet above the ground. It earned the name "Sinha-giri" or Sigiriya due to its entrance shaped like a lion. Even today, tourists from all over the world flock to witness its breathtaking architecture and ingenuity.

​When you visit Sigiriya, you can admire the world-famous frescoes of the Sigiri damsels, the ancient graffiti written on the Mirror Wall, and the beautifully landscaped gardens with highly advanced water management systems. Once you reach the summit, the panoramic natural view is enough to soothe anyone’s mind. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Sigiriya is not just a rock; it is a living testimony to the incomparable skill of ancient Sri Lankan artists and engineers.

The metallic touch against my skin and the majestic look it adds to my feet instill a deep sense of self-confidence within me. As an artist, I feel it enhances the respect I have for the craft I’ve mastered and the dignity I carry as a young woman inheriting our rich local heritage❤️🥺. The way the rhythmic sound of the Silambu blends with every step I take during a dance brings immense joy to my heart🌸🙏. That melodic chime connects me with the environment around me, breathing a unique life and energy into my performance.
