Sigiriya Fortress is known as the Lion Rock. It's one of Sri Lanka's most mysterious abandoned ruins, perched on a rock monolith 500 feet above the valley. This Unesco World Heritage site continues to confuse scientists, nobody really knows what it was.
Join Alex and Marko the Vagabrothers as they explore the secrets of Sigiriya, Sri Lanka's Mysterious Lion Rock.

My husband proposed to me at the top of this rock, about 2 months before this video was released! I was completely surprised; it was amazing. There are definitely still crocodiles in that moat around the monastery gardens, we spotted a couple of them. And there are a few signs around there warning you about them.

Anybody who is looking to travel to Sri Lanka (after corona is no longer a big deal ofc), I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed. Also on a side note, it’s the first time I heard that sigiriya had a myth about aliens. King ravana and king kassapa’s stories are the most common.

You guyz have done the best videos about Sri Lanka I have seen in youtube so far. You guyz are truly amazing. And I really like the fact you chose to visit Anuradhapura, which is the holiest and the most significant city to buddhist people in Sri Lanka. But there are few facts you shared that I need to bring your attention to 1 . When speaking about the frescos you were passing a yellow colour wall, which you completely ignored. That wall is called the mirror wall. Because the inner side was polished like a mirror so that the paintings of apsaras on the rock reflected on it. And later when the palace on top of the rock was abandoned local people visited to see the apsara frescos and wrote poems on that wall. And while only the foundation of the palace buildings are remaining, this wall is the only structure to remain in its' original form without falling down for nearly 2000 years. 2. Sri Lanka was never found by Indo Aryans. When prince Vijaya came to SL there were already 4 tribes inhabiting the island called the Yakka, Deva, Naga and Raksha (Yakksha being the dominant tribe) and with the help of a Yakka princes called Kuweni he murdered most of the Yakka tribe and capture SL and It took decades for the natives and the Aryans to come to peace. 3. Legend says Prince Vijaya came on the day Lord Buddha passed away not on the day He gained enlightenment. 4. I think it would have been more nice if you had used Sri Lankan music for your background music without using Indian music, like all other vloggers do.

A lot of monks go meditate by the stupa! This ancient stupa is known to have packed with immense energy, that's why the Buddha himself wanted his remains established specially in this stupa! Quite the magical place to be around 💛

Dear Vagabrothers, Your videos are great and they are the most balanced youtube videos I had watched about my little island (Which was made by any foreigner.) As most of Sri lankans has commented below few minor corrections should be added about our history. Sri lanka was occupied by humans way before the Vijaya arrived. Even Prehistoric humans such as Hormo Sapian had once lived here. Any ways, thanks and keep up the good work.
