Correct Answer: Sri Lanka


Solution : The correct answer is Sri Lanka .

The captivating paintings of Sigiriya, an ancient site in Sri Lanka, adorn the western surface of Sigiriya Rock and date back around thirteen centuries. Created during the reign of King Kasyapa in 480 AD, these frescoes are a prominent feature of a grand palace complex. Notably, the Sigiriya Frescoes resemble the Gupta style in the Ajanta Caves. Distinctly Sri Lankan, they are the sole surviving examples of non-religious art in the country.
