Today we climbed the Lions Rock in Sri Lanka called Sigiriya. Words can’t even begin to describe the views from the top. When I researched the fortress I knew there would be a lot of stairs to climb. I definitely underestimated the number of stairs and the height. I do not like heights at all. I’m proud to say I made it to the top, very rewarding. I really enjoyed the fresco paintings. I wish we could have taken photographs of them but I understand that photography can ruin the pictures. Coming down from the top was definitely scarier than going up. All the detail put into making the kingdom is amazing. I’m glad we had the opportunity to climb the fortress.
