Pidurangala

per person

Due to its proximity to Sigiriya Rock and small elevation difference, Pidurangala Rock offers the ideal vantage point for seeing Sigiriya Rock. Pidurangala is a well-liked location for sunrise photography since it offers 360-degree views of both the valleys and Sigiriya Rock.

You don’t have to pick between the two. Many tourists get up early to watch the dawn at Pidurangala and then proceed to Sigiriya Rock for the sunset. I definitely suggest doing exactly what I did.
