The photo shows the huge lion's paw of Sigiriya rock in Sri Lanka. Sigiriya rock is also known as Lion's rock and is one of the eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Sri Lanka. It's located right in the middle of Sri Lanka. Things could see from the top of Sigiriya was mostly trees. I felt like I was in a tropical jungle or something. I've heard an interesting story about Sigiriya rock and the King Kashyapa. The King Kashyapa had built his palace on Sigiriya rock to use the rock as a fortress and also to use the rock as a pleasure palace. There're fresco paintings of half-naked Sigiriya ladies. I guess everyone focused on him and he enjoyed the attention.
