Lion Rock

Lion Rock is a real palace built on an orange-red giant rock in the city of Sigiriya, Sri Lanka. Known as the eighth wonder of the world, it was built by King Kassapa of the Moriya dynasty between 447-495 AD. The top is flat and resembles a lion's head, which has weathered away, leaving only the solitary lion's body. On its back lies a garden palace built 200 meters high, encompassing a moat, a garden square, a massive rock, and a brick-red aerial castle built on the top of the rock.
