Found a lovely little guest house with fantastic local food, finally! Owners were very helpful and suggested an ancient city tour on 22/05/08.
Sigriya ancient city was situated on a massive rock which we had to climb up in 30 degree heat. Not such a good idea! Very beautiful with amazing views. One advantage of a being foreign is that we were allowed to see some of the preserved paintings inside the caves - 20Rs. :)
Next we went to see Dambula, which was a series of 5 ancient caves on the top of another big hill which were full of Buddahs. Not sure if I could be Buddhist as you would need to be very fit to walk to all the temples!!
We rewarded ourselves with a late night excursion to the local Bake House. We were told off by an old lady who informed us that Sri Lankan women shouldn't be out after 6pm!!!
