The IMPOSSIBLE Sky City Built 1,500 Years Ago

This ancient sky city sits almost 200 metres above the jungle… and we have no idea how it was built 1500 years ago. Sigiriya rises from the landscape on a near-vertical rock, with the remains of palaces, pools, gardens, monumental gateways and an advanced water system constructed across its summit. Known as Sigiriya Rock Fortress or Lion Rock, this ancient wonder is an incredible example of ancient engineering, lost civilizations, forgotten kingdoms, ancient architecture, archaeological mysteries, advanced ancient technology, mysterious ruins, ancient cities and unexplained construction techniques. Sigiriya remains one of Sri Lanka’s greatest ancient archaeological sites and one of the most remarkable structures of the ancient world. ►Become a channel member today: / youtube.com/@TheUnchartedMysteries/join - Attributions for images used in video: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Cfc5UFJKJcqvau79vDmGA7MHxVHP6rKbqkmbDqExh9Y DISCLAIMER: The pictures, audio, and video used in the videos on this channel are a mix of paid stock, by attribution, royalty-free, public domain, or otherwise fall under the guidelines of fair use.
