Sigiriya- World Heritage Site.
Sigiriya should have been named one of the Wonders of the World, long ago, and now there is a proposal to name it as the Eighth Wonder of the Ancient world. Better late than never!
Sigiriya the lion mountain, Kasyapa, the controversial King and master builder, wanted to own it and built himself a lofty palace a top the huge rock, rising 200 metres out of the flat, irrigated dry zone landscape. Thousand five hundred years later, Sir Arthur C. Clark mooted the idea that Sigiriya qualifies to be the eighth wonder of the world, ranked closely with the Great Wall of China and the Taj Mahal.
While there is no designated world authority to bestow this honour upon Sigiriya . Kasyapa’s fortified palace and city – it still makes an attractive marketing slogan. “ The eighth wonder of the world is Sigiriya, in the Indian – ocean island of Sri Lanka.” Sigiriya has great tourism potential. The Cultural Fund hopes the these, will come a day when tourists flock to the country especially to see the Lion Mountain as they would the Pyramids or the Great Wall.
The claim is not merely a boast either , Sigiriya was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1982. A millennium publication listing the 70 wonders of the world features Sigiriya quite high in the order.
