The Mirror Wall

Just beyond the gallery is a wall covered with ancient graffiti which originally had an extraordinary mirror-like polish.  Visitors from more than a thousand years ago wrote on the wall their impressions of the paintings, as well as their experiences and thoughts on Sigiriya.  There are more than 700 poems amongst this grafitti, many written in very neat and precise lettering.
