Pidurangala, Hiriwaduna Village & Sigiriya Tour (German & English)

**Pidurangala Rock** While Sigiriya Rock is rich in history and has some pretty dramatic features such as the lion’s paw and the mirror wall, Pidurangala Rock has a much more natural feel, despite also housing a temple. Pidurangala Rock is adjacent to Sigiriya Rock and is the best viewing spot of Sigiriya Rock as it is only slightly lower. Pidurangala is a popular spot for sunrise as you can enjoy 360-degree views of not only the valleys but also Sigiriya Rock. There is no need to choose between the two. Many travelers wake up for the sunrise at Pidurangala and then head to sunset on top of Sigiriya Rock. **Hiriwaduna Village** The Hiriwaduna Village is your journey into the environment of a typical Sri Lankan village. The tour starts off with a ride on a Bullock cart (ox cart) along a dirt track and through rice paddies down to the picturesque Hiriwaduna Lake. The adventure continues with a catamaran ride on the lake with its large variety of dry zone birdlife and views of the surrounding forest, marshland and vegetable plots of local farmers. **Route** * **Start from the any Hotel of Sigiriya or Dambulla** * **Proceed to Pidurangala Rock** * **Hiriwaduwa Village Tour** * **Evening at Sigiriya Rock** * **Back to Hotel**
