Water was transported to the top of Sigiriya Mountain through an ingenious system of reservoirs and channels built by King Kashyapa in the 5th century AD. The engineering utilized the natural topography of the area, capturing rainwater from surrounding lands and directing it through a series of aqueducts. This system not only provided water for the gardens and pools on the summit but also demonstrated advanced hydraulic engineering for its time. The impressive water management contributed to the site's aesthetic and functional appeal.
