Summer Palace | Sigiriya
Historical landmark
👍👍 Great history and a challenge. I had a nice cool day, age 74, climbed it in 30 mins easily.Stone steps not great : height and width : steel steps in second leg much easier. Great views all round from all heights. Wall painting interesting to see but probably better studied in guide book.
