If you want to enjoy the magnificent Sigiriya Rock🦁 but don't want to climb over the mountains, don't worry! 🙊
You can easily see the world heritage at the Pidurangala Café on the opposite bank, and you can also sit on the beautiful swing to take the most dreamy travel photos in your life!
☕Must-visit check-in place: Pidurangala Café
📍Google Map search: Pidurangala Café
This small hill cafe on the opposite bank of Sigiriya Rock has an unbeatable view. You don't need to climb the mountain or squeeze in with people. You can enjoy the magnificent scenery and take magazine-level photos while ordering a drink!
🌟Photography highlight: Super exciting high-altitude swing!
🎡 There is a high-altitude swing facing Sigiriya Rock in the cafe, with a super wide view, which is a great prop for shooting travel blockbusters!
💰 For only 300 rupees, you can ask the store staff to help you "flip hard", and you will fly out in front of the mountain view. It is super exciting and has a great sense of picture. I highly recommend this experience!
📸 Photo suggestions:
Shoot from the side or back, with Lion Rock as the background
It is recommended to wear a long skirt or brightly colored clothes, flying in the wind is super dreamy
The moment you flip out is the most beautiful moment, you can take continuous shots to capture the action!
☀️Best time to shoot: Morning is also recommended!
Although soft light silhouettes are the most atmospheric during sunset, the morning is also a great choice:
🌤 Plenty of light, the details of the rocks are clearly visible
😎 The weather is cooler, avoid the high temperature and crowds in the afternoon
💡 It is recommended to arrive between 9:00 and 11:00 in the morning, the light is just right
🕒Recommended easy itinerary (no mountain climbing version)
Time Itinerary Suggestions
08:30 Depart from the hotel, take TukTuk or ride a bicycle to the cafe
09:00 Arrive at the cafe, find a terrace seat and order drinks
09:30 Take a swing photo & Lion Rock scenery photo
10:30 Enjoy brunch slowly and enjoy the scenery
11:30 End the return trip, or go to the surrounding attractions
✅ Warm reminder
☀️ Sunscreen and mosquito repellent should be done well, as the outdoor time is long
📸 Remember to take more sets of angles, and both side and front shots are good
💧 It is recommended to bring a water bottle and towel to replenish water when the weather is hot
🧃 The average cost of the cafe is about 600 to 1000 rupees per person, with drinks and light meals.
