Sue and I are staying in the Sigiriya Hotel for three nights. It's pretty much enveloped by "jungle" and has a fine view of Sigiriya rock, one of the most famous landmarks in the country, and on almost every tourist itinerary. This is the view from the pool. Possibly even more beautiful than peterborough lido and that's saying something.
It's a good idea to start very early if you want to climb the rock to avoid the heat and the hoards. Even so, it was very busy at 8 am. there were loads of tourists from the Far East.
It cost over £20 to visit but that offers better value for money than say going to see peterborough united play. There's a lot of
of stairs and railings to maintain, so we didn't begrudge paying this.
The grounds at the base of the rock were also stunning
