Sigiriya Rock Fortress

Worth it if you're moderately fit and don't mind an early start—the 4.9 rating from nearly 9,000 reviews suggests most people reckon the climb delivers. Go early morning to beat crowds and heat, and factor in the entry fee as a non-negotiable cost; the sheer volume of bookable tours indicates it's genuinely popular rather than overhyped.
