I guess i should've read this post before commenting on the other :P
Beautiful work, very neatly done. And the details, it's just amazing, especially considering how old they are. I would even dare say they have some of the newer schools of art (would dare say if I considered I know enough of that as to talk about it properly)
Wait for my series of pics in dambola !!!
Wow! The frescoes are beautiful, such breathtaking pieces of art! Do you live in Sri Lanka?

@ Ramya
You were in Sri Lanka and didnt visit Sigiriya ???
Then u must have been on work with little time to spare, I guess !!!
@ Nithya,
Welcome Nothya. Glad that you liked them. No, I dont live in SriLanka...Infact I'm a nomad for the last two years, shuffling between, Banlgaore, BelleVille(Canada) and Chennai !!!
The pics were from our vacation to Sri Lanka.
Phantom, good work capturing these frescoes..it's almost like those egyptian art.
about the damaged fresco..even that crack seem to add some character to the painting..
good shots, i say.
