There used to be a palace on the top of the Sigiriya Rock

The photo shows the Sigiriya Rock (a.k.a. Lion's Rock). One of the Unesco World Heritage Sites in Sri Lanka. Long story short, a son of the king took his father's life and became the King Kashapa many many moons ago. The King Kashapa built his own palace on the top of the gigantic rock in the middle of tropical jungle. The Sigiriya Rock is located in the middle of nowhere, so his palace was absolutely isolated. The king lived being surrounded by thousands of beautiful women, but, you know that something happened, the rest is history. If you go there, you'll be allowed to go to the top of the Sigiriya Rock, and if you'll go to the top, you'll be able to experience to view the same views as the ancient King Kashapa did.
