What to wear to climb Sigiriya?

When climbing Sigiriya Rock, make sure to wear comfortable and mountaineering clothing. Also, it is better to wear moisture-wicking clothing that can withstand even in the rain. Some of the stairs are pretty high, so it's ideal to wear a dress that covers the thighs, because it allows the lower part of your waist to be visible to those below when climbing the stairs. Also, don't forget to wear sturdy shoes that can withstand walking on any road, as the path may be slippery. Additionally, if you plan to hike in the afternoon, sunglasses, hats, and sunscreen are essential. If you'd like, try bringing a camera or binoculars.
